Cibola Trail Alliance

Cibola Trail Alliance (CTA) and it's donors found out that a mini excavator that they purchased for trail building this summer was a stolen piece equipment. The CTA's board worked tirelessly to raise money to purchase a small trail building machine to help them complete 19 miles of multiuse single-track trails, they have been working on this past two years. CTA has hosted several fundraisers to help them obtain funds to buy a machine. This summer they found a machine they could afford and went to purchase it for $12,300. On October 10, 2023, CTA was contacted by NM State Police and found out that the purchased machine was stolen prior to being sold to CTA. The excavator is a key tool to the success of finishing the Lobo Canyon Trails Project. Any help would be greatly appreciated to help us get an excavator to continue our quest to building our trails in our community.
