For all hikers, mountain bikers or those of you who follow the Tour Divide:

Chicagoans tend to link "vote early and often" to either Al Capone, who is supposed to have said it around 1915, or Richard J. Daley, who may have said something like it in the 1950s.  

New Mexicans, in this instance, can and should vote early and often so that $25,000 will come to benefit two portions of our part of the Continental Divide Trail!

Because Michelobe Ultra is co-sponsoring this contest with the American Hiking Society, you should be over 21 to enter the site and vote. The'll ask for your email (to keep it to one vote per day) but you have to opt-in if you wanted to receive promotional emails from Michelobe.

SO, follow the link, vote and see if we can't beat out Florida for 1st, or at least ensure we stay ahead of Rib Lake, WI. Two locations will be chosen for funding.

If awarded the Michelob ULTRA Superior Trails grant, volunteers will expand the trail within the state of New Mexico and create a new “Trail Adopters” training program that helps educate and mentor new Adopters on the Gila and Carson National Forests. These much needed upgrades in staffing and trail expansions will help preserve the unique natural history of the Divide for future generations.
