What Wasatch Trails Alliance does
Mission
The mission of the Wasatch Trails Alliance is to support and help plan a comprehensive and sustainable trail system in wasatch county, to provide outdoor recreation opportunities for locals and visitors and to meet the growing needs of the biking, hiking and equestrian communities.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Eric stritter, trail crew foreman, justin pyper, jonah jibson and galen carter have put in over 1500 hours of work into maintaining our beautiful trails. Not only have they resurrected 1000 turns and given the pine canyon creek complex hiking area some much needed attention, they have worked tirelessly to bring the "pull factor" pirate trail up to standard (not to mention made it way more fun) and aided in getting it adopted into the wasatch mountain state park as a real trail. In addition, the crew has cleared over 60 miles, taken down 50 or more trees, and built roughly 20 features. We are extremely grateful to mtf for supporting wtf and the wasatch back trail crew. Creative trails has finished tug of war and heard it both ways (although this trail is directional).

Bob radke and crew have already started this connection and hope to finish it just in time for us to ride it before the snow we're grateful for all of the support we've had to make this happen. Partners including, utah ex development, mag, utah open lands, mida, and more, are…

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $208,663.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 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 2023 to 2024, from $101k to $267k (+164%).
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: 2024 68%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of WASATCH TRAILS ALLIANCE’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (88% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2019 → 2023: the base narrowed from 3 funders to 2 funders, grant income rose $11k → $49k.
5 of 10 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 47% 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 WASATCH TRAILS ALLIANCE’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
WASATCH TRAILS ALLIANCE leans on a few funders — its largest provides 29% of grant income and the top three 70%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
94% 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 WASATCH TRAILS ALLIANCE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 45% · 2023 77% — 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.
Where its funders are
63% of WASATCH TRAILS ALLIANCE's grant income comes from Utah funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $62k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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.
