Description: Come learn some trail-building basics on Open Space lands along Tijeras Creek in Albuquerque. We’ll meet in CABQ Open Space’s Tijeras BioZone Education Center at 9:30AM to begin an hour or more of book learning, followed by an instructional walkthru on a nearby trail and some hands-on practice. Tools will be supplied.

This 101 course will provide an important base of knowledge for anyone who also plans to join our hands-on trail-building field training workshop the following Saturday, March 18th.  New volunteers are encouraged to join us for either or both of these March workshops. Anyone who would like a skills refresher is welcome too!

Please bring your own work gloves. Also required: long pants, sturdy boots or shoes, and eye protection (sunglasses). Highly recommended: layered clothing; a hat; a day pack with water, snacks and sunblock; pen and notebook.

If you’d like to join us please sign up below by Tuesday March 7th. Note that space is limited. Once the project fills we will start a waitlist. Hope to see you there!
