San Pedro Parks Wilderness (Cuba RD)
May 25, 2018 @ 8:00 AM - May 28, 2018 @ 5:00 PM
Contact Leader(s): Bill Velasquez, 505-225-5744, nmvfo@live.com with any questions.
RESULT: Five volunteers renewed 3.5 miles of trail, removing 27 deadfalls.
Join us as we help clear and restore a section of this trail located on the south end of the San Pedro Parks Wilderness. This trail is one of the longest in the Parks, but it is also one of the least used. It needs a lot of TLC to get it back in shape. This is an unsupported backpack project, which means that you will be expected to carry in everything you need for four days at basecamp. You will also be expected to carry in a (provided) tool which we will use for the project. Come prepared to do your own cooking and filter your own water. We will focus on clearing the trail of deadfall, but may also do tread work depending on time. We will hike 2.5 miles in to an area where we will have access to water, and then begin working back to the TH, spending all three nights in the same location and hiking out the last day. Carpooling options available.
There is a 10 person limit and you must be a US Citizen to participate. Therefore, you MUST pre-register with the project leader, Bill Velasquez, nmvfo@live.com or 505-292-6030. If you are not pre-registered, you will be turned away at the trailhead.
