TRAIL DAY 101
Trail Days are an easy and fun way to give back to the trails that we all know and love. Each day is led by an experienced trail crew leader who can get newcomers pointed in the right direction and the necessary instruction to make a difference and keeping our trails running right!
Quick list of things to bring with you:
-
A good attitude!
-
A small pack with snacks & water. Unless stated otherwise, most work days will include lunch.
-
Weather-appropriate clothing...prepare for the cold, rain or sun. If in question, pack some extra layers.
-
Work gloves and boots (or durable footwear).
