Trail In A Box – Just Add Volunteers

Would your group like to build a natural surface trail, but lacks the necessary equipment? Then you should consider our Trail In A Box equipment loan. Here’s how it works.

1 – Fill out the Trail In A Box Application form and email it to us at info@kansastrailscouncil.org
2 – We will review your project and contact you to work out the details.

Once your trail project is approved by your land manager and we have approved your application we will loan your group Trail In A Box and work with you and your volunteers to get started on the trail project. Our trail building experts will demonstrate the safe operation of all the equipment and discuss best practices for building sustainable natural surface trails.  We’ll provide the equipment and expertise and you provide the volunteers!
Trail In A Box is a single-axle, enclosed trailer which can be towed by a small pickup or SUV with a GVWR of 3000 lbs.  The equipment inside includes hand tools for 25 to 30 volunteers as well as an arsenal of power equipment that should make trail building more fun than work!

Check out this video for a tour of the tools and equipment in Trail in a Box.
