Welcome to the AMC's annual trail sign auction! Every year the AMC's White Mountain Trail Crew replaces weathered or out-of-date trail signs with new signs. The old signs are collector's items, having guided thousands of visitors for many years along celebrated paths throughout the Whites.
All proceeds from the auction will support AMC's trail efforts in the Northeast.
This year's auction took place on eBay and ended on Thursday, December 6, 2007.
