This is a general shoutout to anyone interested in doing trail work at TRSP this weekend. This will be the second of two to three days (not in a row) of work that needs to be done to finish the loop for END-TOMBED (coming up October 29th).
We'll be building a bridge!
If you are attending please email
[email protected] and say who you are and what you're bringing so we can get an accurate count.
Details:
- Saturday, October 1st
- 1:30-4:30 PM at Turtle River State Park
Directions to site:
- Enter TRSP, stop at ranger station to get $5 vehicle pass if you don't have one (free entry pending, we're asking
- Take first right after ranger station.
- Continue north until you pass second bridge; park in lot to the right (don't go up the hill after the bridge)
What to bring (if you have it):
- Long pants/long-sleeved shirt (stinging nettles and bugs are possible)
- Closed-toe shoes
- Gloves
- Hammers
- Drills with screw bits
- Any spare 3" nails or screws you have lying around.
- Hand saws
- Your mountain bike!
This is (for the moment) a temporary bridge to be used for the END-TOMBED, however we plan to construct it to be as sustainable as possible in hopes that it can become a permanent part of the park (or at least good enough to use next year).
We're looking into getting some pizza delivered for volunteers at some point as well.
One other trail day may include clearing out brush on the other side of the river, but when we walked the trail last time it really only needed to be mowed, which TRSP will be doing.
