2020 Trail Run

Cooper Landing Walkable Community

Virtual Trail Run: June 6th

Our Point of View

 Our Trail Run is cancelled this year, our pathway will see significant changes in the next several years but our point of view remains the same: we seek to connect our community through active transportation along safe pathways.

June 6th would have been the date of our trail run. We hope you will take a moment of your day to show your appreciation for active transportation corridors by:

Check out the changes in store for our corridor at SterlingHighway.net

Phase 1B builds a separated pathway along the New Sterling Highway in our trail run corridor. You can see a large file (36MB) drawing of this phase here. https://www.sterlinghighway.net/documents/Phase%201B%20Overview%20Figure%20(2020-02-25).pdf

Share an image of you traveling our pathway or another public pathway that you love.

Post your photo with #CLWCP or send it to us via email so we can share it in an event album on our Facebook page.

Whether it is along Safety Path, our Trail Run route or a pathway closer to home – get outside, go for a run or walk on a path that connects your community and share a photo of your route and what it means to you on our Facebook page.   

Is it a great view? Is it fun terrain? Does it get you to work, to play, or to another place or access activity? Let us know how active transportation and recreation corridors benefit you.  

We may not run together on June 6th but we still want to share the trails that connect us all.

If you are able, please consider donating to a trail organization.

2019Dec04 Steering Committee meeting with public attendance

On Dec 4, 2019 the Steering Committee met and many members of the public attended. Please click HERE for the minutes to that meeting. The treasurer’s report can be read HERE. After a history and updating of the project progress was given, discussion included whether or not the Trails Committee and Walkable Committee should become one group and general consensus was that we should. We’re moving forward with collaboration with Alaska Department of Transportation and Pubic Facilities on a pathway between MP 45 and 47 that will be built when the Sterling Highway MP 45-60 project moves forward.
