Sept. 28-29: Greenie Mountain Trail Construction
Monte Vista, CO 81144
United States
Event Description
Volunteers will work to construct a new segment of trail to expand the Greenie Mountain trail system. Volunteers may also perform basic trail maintenance on the existing trails if necessary. Tasks on all sections will range from moving a thin layer of soil and clearing plants such as grasses, yucca, and cacti, to moving large rocks and boulders. Roads to the site are rough and volunteers will hike the last 1.5 miles in.
Enjoy breakfast on Saturday and Sunday, along with dinner on Saturday. Bring your own lunch. Free campsites are available on Friday and Saturday nights, and volunteers are encouraged to arrive at base camp before 8 p.m. on Friday.
Volunteers must be 16 or older. All minors must be accompanied by an adult at least 21 years-old.
