SUMMARY:Rio en Medio Watershed Restoration (Santa Fe NF)
DESCRIPTION:RESULTS: On Friday May 6\, 14 NMVFO volunteers joined Steve Vrooman and Keystone Restoration Ecology for some post-fire watershed restoration work along the Rio en Medio after the Medio Fire damaged the area in August 2020. Work included piling brush to keep cows away from fens and other sensitive areas\, and building rock structures to create shallow ponds for fish. Volunteers built an estimated 35 structures and laid brush in 15 locations.\n\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n	 \n	\n	Show More\n\n\n\nPHOTO ALBUM LINK \n\nDescription: NMVFO will partner with Rio Puerco Alliance and Keystone Restoration Ecology to help restore a wetland area in the southeast corner of the Valle Grande\, the largest valley in Valles Caldera National Preserve. This is part of a larger a New Mexico Environmental Department (NMED) wetlands project\, the East Fork Headwaters Restoration Project\, which will restore 400 acres of the headwaters of the East Fork of the Jemez River. Our job will be to put the finishing touches on the project by building rock dams along a spring-fed channel and a small intermittent creek. The site is close to a road and can be accessed with a short hike. \nMore info about meeting location to follow\, for those who sign up. Hope you can join us! \nPlease sign up below by Wednesday\, May 4. One person per signup. \nDifficulty:  \nGroup Size: 15 \nFor more information: If this is your first NMVFO project\, you can find more information about difficulty ratings and what to expect at Volunteer FAQ\, or email the project leader. \nPlease read our Volunteer Guidelines before signing up for this project.

SUMMARY:Cañoncito Trail (Sandia RD)
DESCRIPTION:RESULTS: On May 14\, 2022\, eight NMVFO volunteers built a 250-ft spur trail in the Sandia Mountains\, connecting the Cañoncito Trail to Cañoncito Spring. They removed and moved countless logs and other debris to keep horses off a sensitive area near the spring; reinforced the edge of the water where the trail “lands”; and closed off a steep user trail which had led to the spring.\n\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n	 \n	\n	Show More\n\n\n\nPHOTO ALBUM LINK \n\nDescription: Join us for a day and a half of work near the intersection of the Faulty and Cañoncito trails in the Sandia Mountains. Volunteers will build a spur trail\, redefine existing tread\, create water protection measures\, and build a buck & rail fence to direct traffic and mitigate erosion in the vicinity of Cañoncito Spring. We will camp nearby at the Cole Spring picnic area. \nOn Friday evening we will meet at the Sandia Ranger District (SRD) Visitor Center\, at the north end of the parking lot. From there we’ll caravan to our campsite at Cole Spring. The road to Cole Spring is rough\, and 4WD is best. At the SRD there is a secure place to leave cars if anyone would like to carpool from there. We’ll pass through a locked gate to get to Cole Spring and will not leave the area until the end of the project\, except in case of emergency. \nCamping at Cole Spring should be pleasant\, with picnic tables and shade. Besides tent\, sleeping bag/pad\, headlamp\, etc\, a camp chair and cooler are nice to have. Please bring your own dinnerware and eating utensils. NMVFO will provide breakfast on Saturday and Sunday\, and dinner on Saturday. Volunteers will be responsible for their own lunches and snacks\, as well as dinner on Friday. \nUSFS regulations require that we wear sturdy boots\, long pants and sleeves\, work gloves\, eye protection (sunglasses okay) and hard hats when we work. Hard hats and tools provided. Please also bring a day pack for snacks & lunch\, water bottle\, sunblock\, and rain gear. \nYou can sign up below until Monday\, May 9. One person per signup. Hope to see you there! \nDifficulty:  \nGroup Size: 15 \nFor more information: If this is your first NMVFO project\, you can find more information about difficulty ratings and what to expect at Volunteer FAQ\, or email the project leader. \nPlease read our Volunteer Guidelines before signing up for this project.

SUMMARY:Middle Fork Backpack (Gila NF) - CANCELED DUE TO FIRE DANGER
DESCRIPTION:Description: New Mexico Volunteers for the Outdoors\, Back Country Horsemen (BCH)\, and Continental Divide Trail Coalition (CDTC) will collaborate on a 6-day project on the middle fork of the Gila River with a half day during the project to explore or relax. Volunteers will be able to address 5.5 miles of corridor\, cairns and tread work as this popular Gila Alternate route winds along the banks of the Gila with towering cliff faces overhead. This is a popular route for locals\,  thru-hikers and equestrians to experience the beauty of the Gila Wilderness. Post-fire flooding and extensive deferred maintenance have caused the trail to braid along the riverside\, causing travelers to bushwhack through sensitive river landscapes. \nBe prepared to get your feet wet daily\, since the trail crosses the river frequently in this tight canyon. Tools will be provided and will be packed in by horses. Breakfasts and dinners will be provided by BCH. Volunteers are asked to bring their own snacks and lunches. \nCurrent CDTC Covid protocols will be observed on this partnered project. \nVolunteers will arrive the morning of May 26th or can camp at the trailhead the night before\, meeting between 8:15-8:30 AM for a gear check and some paperwork before the 8 mile hike to base camp. \nClick here for a detailed project description and gear list. \nDifficulty:  \nGroup Size: 15 \nSign up below by Wednesday\, May 18. One person per signup. \nFor more information: If this is your first NMVFO project\, you can find more information about difficulty ratings and what to expect at Volunteer FAQ\, or email the project leader. \nPlease read our Volunteer Guidelines before signing up for this project.
