The Bigfoot Trail Alliance (BFTA) is dedicated to promoting the conservation and appreciation of the Klamath Mountains through the Bigfoot Trail, a long-distance hiking route that spans approximately 360 miles from the Yolla Bolly Middle Eel Wilderness to the Pacific Ocean near Crescent City, California. This trail not only showcases the region's rich biodiversity, including 32 species of conifers, but also traverses six wilderness areas, one National Park, and one State Park.

In addition to trail maintenance and community engagement, the BFTA emphasizes the importance of acknowledging the Indigenous nations whose ancestral lands the trail traverses. The organization actively works to foster a deeper understanding of the area's ecological significance while encouraging volunteerism and stewardship among nature enthusiasts.
