What Siskiyou Mountain Club does
Mission
The Siskiyou Mountain Club formed to restore, maintain and promote primitive trails in the siskiyou backcountry and to provide outdoor service opportunities for the public. We coordinate stewardship projects, lead outdoor adventures and publish useful information for the public.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Our Wilderness Corps does the hard work it takes to keep our region's trails alive. Crews of college interns and leadership staff dispatch to remote work sites across the national forests of southwest Oregon and northwest California. Crews perform critical maintenance on popular destinations like the Rogue River National Recreation Trail and the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail. They also dispatch into the most remote depths of these areas to restore and maintain lesser-known trails like the Upper Chetco and Illinois River trails, as well as the trail networks crossing the Red Buttes, Wild Rogue, Sky Lakes, Kalmiopsis, Siskiyou, and Marble Mountain federal wilderness areas.In 2024, Siskiyou Mountain Club trail crews maintained 145 miles of trails and restored 21 miles of trails across the national forests of southwest Oregon and northwest California. We coordinated over 15,000 staff and intern stewardship hours through our Wilderness Conservation Corps work program. We enlisted 18 interns who gained exposure to public lands careers and developed marketable job skills in technical forestry, recreation, and leadership.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $879k to $1.8M (+105%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2018 51% · 2019 13% · 2020 38% · 2021 31% · 2022 12%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
92% of SISKIYOU MOUNTAIN CLUB’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (88% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 3 funders to 4 funders, grant income rose $15k → $87k.
8 of 19 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 40% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of SISKIYOU MOUNTAIN CLUB’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
SISKIYOU MOUNTAIN CLUB leans on a few funders — its largest provides 48% of grant income and the top three 77%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
48% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund SISKIYOU MOUNTAIN CLUB.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 56% · 2018 57% · 2019 61% · 2020 42% · 2021 70% · 2022 71% · 2023 69% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
40% of SISKIYOU MOUNTAIN CLUB's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 37% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
SISKIYOU MOUNTAIN CLUB draws 98% of its grant income from funders outside Oregon, across 8 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $297k arriving through sponsors registered in 7 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

These figures are read directly from IRS Form 990 / 990-PF e-file XML: this organization’s own return for FY2024 (financials across 2018–2024), and the filings of 19 funders that report grants to it. “On record” means captured in the filings we have parsed — a funder that does not e-file, or whose grant detail is not itemized, will not appear. Filings run roughly 12–24 months behind. Trends on this page end at FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving; later years are shown and marked, and move no figure.
