The CPA's Tundra Trails Action Group (TTAG) aims to prepare plain-language guidelines for planning, design, construction, monitoring and maintenance of trails (e.g., ATV) in tundra environments underlain by permafrost, in a manner that limits permafrost degradation and accommodates landscape responses to climate change. Since its inception early in 2025, the TTAG has met on several occasions to discuss key challenges associated with tundra trails and gather information (e.g., site photographs, associated anecdotes, reports/publications) to support the development of associated guidelines. A framework for the guideline document has been drafted, and the TTAG next looks forward to the collaborative preparation of each section.
