Last year, shortly after Thanksgiving, Dexter Eroen called the Sierra Club for the very first time. He had an idea to raise money for the Angeles Chapter as part of his goal to run 67.4 miles in one push across the Santa Monica Mountains Backbone Trail, an open space that inspires his love for the outdoors and desire to protect it. His passion for getting people outside and his sincere approach to this iconic trail were an immediate match with Sierra Club.
