Trail Stewardship Project - National Public Lands Day

Help our trail crew bring a section of trail back to a sustainable standard. Celebrate National Public Lands Day with us by assisting Larimer County Natural Resources Trail Crew with maintenance at Rotary Park.

This area is popular for day-users and climbers and sees lots of use in the summer. This means wear and tear occurs on the trail, brush needs to be trimmed back, and litter to be picked up. Project will be of moderate difficultly. Meet at the Rotary Park parking lot.

Volunteers will need to be able to hike ~1 mile carrying two trail hand tools and supplies for the day. They will be using/swinging tools to move dirt, dig and create drainage features, use loppers/hand saws to remove vegetation, and/or any other kind of physical labor needed to improve the trail.

Volunteers will need to bring:
Sun protection (sunglasses, hat, sunscreen)
Work gloves (some will be provided)
Wear closed-toe shoes
Water & re-fillable water bottle
Insect repellant
Snacks
Clothing appropriate for the weather
Backpack (to carry it all)
Hand sanitizer (optional)

A day parking pass will be provided.
