Since 2008, our company has provided community-focused trail design, education, support, construction, and maintenance across the Southwest.
We are a different kind of trail company—one that prioritizes connections, community engagement, skill development, and protection of public lands, while creating high quality trail and recreation infrastructure.
We work closely with land managers, non-profits, volunteers, and user groups to achieve our mission, and have a track record of successful projects that are well regarded by users.

"I've been privileged to build a career around creating and repairing trails. I've been doing this work for a long time, and I still get excited about every step of a new trail I design and every stone I set into a staircase. My work is magical to me, and I bring that energy into every project I am part of."

Owner/Founder With over 30 years of experience, Eric brings knowledge, enthusiasm, and energy to every project he is involved in. He is proficient at trail design and construction, as well as management and leadership.

Eric possesses the ability to see the big picture without losing sight of the important details. In addition to his work at Outslope Trail Solutions, he volunteers as the Stewardship Coordinator for the Climbing Association of Southern Arizona (CASA). "Since I was a small child I have loved trails. They are paths to adventure – places where new sights and smells are around every turn. Each trip is a journey of discovery. No matter how many times one travels down a trail it will always be a different experience – a place to learn, and grow and simply be. Trails bring us together and allow us to connect to nature. They are not just a way to get somewhere, but an entire world of their own." |
