Join the North Country Trail Hikers Chapter

We are always interested in welcoming new members to our organization. Please consider becoming a member to help further our efforts to fully develop the North Country National Scenic Trail here in the central Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

Reasons for joining the North Country Trail Hikers Chapter:

You should join us if you would like to:

  • Help finish the trail across the UP. Getting the trail on the ground involves activities for people of all interests and abilities, from route scouting, construction and marking, to working with landowners and support activities on work trips.
  • Adopt an existing section of the trail. We'll provide you with tools and training.
  • Join us for hikes, ski trips, etc. on the trail and elsewhere.
  • Keep informed of trail and other non-motorized outdoor recreation issues in the UP through our NCTH newsletter, Footnotes, and the national NCTA magazine, North Star, and all e-mail announcements of local and national events and activities.
  • Financially or otherwise, support North Country Trail and other related issues in the UP.

How do I join?

Simply e-mail Sue Holtzmann, our treasurer and request a membership form (or sponsored membership form if you are a new member) or mail your

  • name
  • address
  • city, state, and zip
  • phone number
  • e-mail address
