The RoundUp is coming to Maine and registration is still open!
We are less than one month away from the very first RoundUp in Maine. We're partnering with and many incredible sponsors to bring an APA RoundUp to the east coast once again.
Join us over Labor Day weekend, September 4-7, along the West Branch of the Penobscot River for 4 days of paddling, camping, and community. Registration is limited to only 40 people, so this is your chance to see what fall paddling in Maine is all about. We hope to see you there!
You can find the registration and more information at the link below, send it to a friend who might be interested: bit.ly/roundupmaine

Huge thanks to for being our first sponsor for Packraft RoundUp Maine!
Events like this only happen because of sponsors like Go North who show up to support the growing packrafting community. This event also wouldn't exist without , our partner helping us put this event together.
35 days until RoundUp Maine, and it's only open to 40 people. Tickets are going, don't wait to sign up. Send this to a friend who would be interested! bit.ly/roundupmaine
P.S. what brands would you like to win gear from in our event raffle? Tag them in the comments!

We know the "contact your representatives" call to action feels tired, especially when nothing changes overnight. It still matters; call volumes and public comments get tallied and tracked, and they get cited later as evidence of how people actually felt. If we don't build that record, silence gets read as consent.
Ask your members of Congress to support America's Red Rock Wilderness Act (H.R. 2467 / S. 1193), which would designate more than 8 million acres of BLM land in Utah as wilderness. If your representative is already a cosponsor, thank them and ask them to keep up the good work! Head to the link in our bio from our friends at to see if your rep is on the cosponsor list
If your representative sits on the House Natural Resources Committee or the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, ask them specifically to sign onto the bill and to request a hearing. We've pasted the names of those committee members below.
Committee member or not, tell your rep plainly that you don't agree with this rollback and that you want these monuments protected. These public lands belong to all of us, not to any administration to give away.
Not sure who represents you? Search "who is my representative" or "who is my senator" to find out.
