Rico Trails Alliance (RTA) has been working with the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) on the Rico Trails Project. The project consists of four multi-use trail projects (three non-motorized trail projects in the Rico area and one motorized trail connector between Stoner and Taylor mesas).

Rico Trails Alliance (RTA) was started in the spring of 2017 by residents of Rico interested in expanding non-motorized recreation in the area, improving quality of life and bringing economic benefit to Rico.
