There are lots of groups specific to regions and activities, so a bit of searching about specific activities/places you enjoy should yield some good organizations.
For example https://www.accessfund.org/ https://www.accessfund.org/ does a great job of representing rock climbers.
https://gorgefriends.org/ https://gorgefriends.org/ are a group representing the Columbia River Gorge along the Oregon/Washington border.
- StudentStuff 9y agoThe "Friends of the Gorge" are no friend you'd want. Every interaction I had with them was NIMBY, how dare you not smother the small towns along the gorge to death BS. Most of 'em would see to it that the Gorge goes back to having no wind mills, roads or dams unless its directly used by them for wind surfing or skiing. Bunch of rich, elitist assholes who've come in from Portland and Seattle to fuck up the Gorge IMO.
