Four people wearing "Rainbow Trust" shirts stand together smiling on a grassy hillside with mountains and a valley in the background. They appear to be on a hike. Two cyclists wearing Rainbow Trust shirts and helmets stand smiling under a colorful Rainbow Trust archway, with parked cars and houses in the background. A group of hikers stand on a rocky mountain peak, smiling and holding two "Rainbow Trust" banners. The sky is overcast, and misty hills are visible in the background. A person wearing a colorful hat and red life jacket paddles a canoe on a lake, surrounded by scenic mountains under a cloudy sky.
