What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

America's remaining wild snowscapes and upper watersheds are under increasing pressure from climate change, biodiversity and habitat loss, commercial development, extractive industry and unmanaged recreation.

Our programs

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

SnowSchool

SnowSchool is a bridge connecting more than 30,000 kids annually to the world of snow science and winter recreation. Our curriculum is designed for kindergarten to high school and combines a field trip in the snow with classroom presentations. Students learn about hydrology, winter ecology, wildlife, and snow crystals. They also make a vital connection between the snowpack–the largest reservoir in the West–and the water they drink every day.

Backcountry Film Festival

Presented by Winter Wildlands Alliance in over 100 locations each winter, Backcountry Film Festival manifests the power of humans and their spirit. We screen cinematic stories of outdoor stewardship, grassroots policy and advocacy work, backcountry adventure, and snow cinema by human-powered advocates, athletes, brands, activists, adventures, and outdoor enthusiasts.

Policy and Advocacy

Winter Wildlands Alliance’s mission is to inspire and empower people to protect America’s wild snowscapes. We represent a fast-growing community of backcountry and Nordic skiers, splitboarders, snowshoers, climbers, climate researchers, and other human-paced winter explorers from Maine to California to Alaska. Our members, and the members of our 33 different grassroots groups in 14 states, are working together to improve climate resilience on public lands, to advocate for sustainable and equitable recreation management, to protect wildlife and watersheds, and to make stewardship and conservation the primary ethic of all backcountry users. We deeply value ecological integrity, natural winter soundscapes, and the opportunity for refuge and respite afforded by the last remaining places across the United States where solitude, wildness, wildlife habitat, and non-motorized experiences are protected. From the backcountry to Washington D.C., Winter Wildlands Alliance works with land managers,

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

What is the organization aiming to accomplish?

Our primary goal is the protection and stewardship of America's wild snowscapes. This includes traditional conservation as well as the improvement of equitable and sustainable access and the establishment of a culture of balance and kindness in backcountry recreation.

What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?

In order to do this, we work hard to build and sustain a powerful and diverse alliance of winter recreationists and others to ensure thriving ecosystems, natural soundscapes, climate resilience and the long-range sustainability of human-powered recreation in these sensitive and diminishing landscapes. This includes educating the next generation of winter stewards through our nationwide SnowSchool program, inspiring our growing constituency through our national Backcountry Film Festival tour, as well as showing up and participating in a variety of advocacy opportunities in order to impact public lands policy and management.

What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?

We have six full time staff in three states, as well as a network of 30 different grassroots organizations and 60 SnowSchool sites in more than 14 states.

What have they accomplished so far and what's next?

Some high-level successes and accomplishments in our 23 years as an organization:

2004 - WWA helps to found the Outdoor Alliance.
2013 - Yellowstone National Park publishes a long-term winter use plan, leading to a
remarkable recovery for the unique winter ecosystem of our nation’s first national park.
2015 – The Forest Service finalizes the Over-Snow Vehicle (OSV) Rule, which requires
relevant National Forests to designate routes and areas where over-snow vehicles are
allowed and prohibits winter motorized travel in places that are not specifically
designated and shown on a map as open.
2016 – Winter Travel Planning officially begins on 5 national forests in California
2020 – The Great American Outdoors Act becomes law, marking the largest investment
ever made in U.S. public lands and permanently (and fully) funding the Land and Water
Conservation Fund.
2021 – We protect Idaho’s Centennial Mountains from an ill-conceived heli-skiing
proposal that threatened wolverines, grizzly bears, and existing winter recreation uses.
2022 – WWA celebrates publication of the first winter travel plans written under the 2015
OSV Rule, on the Stanislaus and Lassen National Forests. More travel plans follow
shortly thereafter.
2022 – Along with other members of the Gallatin Forest Partnership, we celebrate the
inclusion of a 92,500-acre Gallatin Range Wilderness recommendation in the Custer
Gallatin Forest Plan, the first time the Forest Service has recommended permanent
protections for this landscape.
2023 – After a 7-year campaign to protect Moose Mountain, on the North Shore of Lake
Superior, the Superior National Forest denies Lusten Mountains Ski and Summer
Resort’s request

Throughout the years, WWA has created groundbreaking land management resources such as
synthesizing the best available science related to winter recreation, our Winter Recreation on
Western National Forest Lands Report and the Winter Trails and Backcountry Use Economic
Impact Analysis for the Teton Region.

Balance sheet

Fiscal Year: Jul 01 - Jun 30

SOURCE: IRS Form 990 info

The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.

Data

We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.

Policies and processes

We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
