May 19 @ 8:00 AM - May 22 @ 2:30 PM
Contact Leader(s): Melissa Green, m.green@nmvfo.org with any questions.
Description: Join us for lots of brushing, and some logging/tread west and north of Emory Pass, including Gallinas #129, Railroad #128 and Crest #79. We will meet at Railroad Campground and hike to base camp 4.25 miles away. Volunteers should be prepared to hike up to 6.0 miles each day. Refer to the trail map.
Food: Gila BCH homemade vacuum sealed meals (breakfasts and dinners) will be available for this project. We can accommodate meat eaters, vegetarians, and some gluten free diets. But you can also bring your own breakfasts and dinners if you prefer. Everyone will need to provide their own lunches and snacks. Water: Please bring water for the backpack to base camp. We will provide jugs of water at base camp. There is no water on the trail where we will work, so bring a 3-quart water capacity. We will provide: Tools, hard hats, trail and safety training, project supervision, and first aid kit with Wilderness First Responder trained personnel.
Please see the BCH website description for a packing list and more information! Sign up below by Wednesday May 14.
