Current Project

Since 2015, RMFI has helped complete trail and restoration projects in North Cheyenne Cañon Park, a regional park managed by the City of Colorado Springs Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Services Department (CSPRCS). Notable RMFI projects include new trail construction to access Mt. Muscoco and improvements to Mt. Cutler, Silver Cascade Trail, Buffalo Canyon, Mid-Columbine Trail, and Powell Connector Trail/Upper Columbine. Many of these projects were made possible through a partnership with the Friends of Cheyenne Cañon (FOCC), a nonprofit organization dedicated to the stewardship of the Park.
