Western States Trail Endowment Fund

This fund is to raise money to memoralize our dear friend Dr. Jim Baldwin, DVM who passed on December 31, 2019. These funds will go directly to the Western States Trail Endowment Fund and will be used to adopt sections of the trail with the balance going to support ongoing maintenance of the trail in Jim's name.

Jim first got involved with endurance riding back in the mid 1980's when he was asked to work as a ride veterinarian. He later took up riding endurance himself. Jim traveled the world serving in many different roles supporting endurance riding. Jim loved the Tevis endurance ride and served as a ride veterinarian more than a dozen times. Jim rode and completed the Tevis in 1995 on his gelding Goose.
