Summary

In recent years, more people than ever have been heading outdoors—discovering new trails, exploring public lands, and connecting with nature in ways that are shaping the future of outdoor recreation. But with that surge in participation comes an important question: how do we make sure the places we love are protected? In episode 217 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we’re talking about AllTrails’ first-ever Impact Report and what it reveals about the role technology can play in protecting trails, supporting land managers, and turning outdoor users into stewards of the places they explore. To explore this topic, I’m joined by Pitt Grewe, Head of Social and Environmental Impact at AllTrails. If you’ve ever used the app to plan a hike, check trail conditions, or discover a new route, you’ve interacted with the platform he’s helping shape. Pitt has spent more than two decades working across the outdoor industry with a focus on helping people connect with public lands. Before joining AllTrails, he served as Director of the Division of Outdoor Recreation for the state of Utah, where he worked with partners across government, nonprofits, and industry to expand outdoor access and funding.
