CFI is proud to honor Patrick Mercer, District Ranger for the Leadville Ranger District, as our 2024 Agency Partner of the Year! U.S. Forest Service - PSICC National Forest![]()

Though such a significant change presented its challenges, Patrick’s guidance and collaborative approach have been instrumental in keeping the program moving forward and strengthening CFI’s ability to steward these cherished peaks.![]()
Patrick’s commitment to preserving our public lands and supporting CFI’s mission has made a lasting impact. We are grateful for his partnership and leadership. Thank you, Patrick! 🌄

🏔️ Peak Steward of the Year - Steve O’Clair! 🏔️![]()
We’re excited to recognize Steve O’Clair as CFI’s 2024 Peak Steward of the Year!![]()
Steve has been a dedicated Peak Steward since 2022, and his contributions in 2024 went above and beyond. Steve recorded time in the field educating hikers about LNT ethics and represented CFI at six outreach events, including REI clinics and 14er Fest. But he didn’t stop there—Steve also joined two multi-day trail stewardship projects and strengthened our State Trails grant proposal with a thoughtful and impactful letter of support.![]()
No matter the challenge, Steve always steps up—whether it’s with short notice or when we need a hand during crunch time. His versatility and reliability make him a volunteer who can truly do it all.![]()
Thank you, Steve, for your hard work, enthusiasm, and commitment to CFI’s mission! 💚
