Trigo Canyon Small Group Project – Continued
May 26, 2020 @ 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Contact Leader(s): Don Lemke, d.lemke@nmvfo.org with any questions.
RESULTS: Two small groups of four volunteers each removed deadfall from the Trigo Canyon Trail in the Manzano Mountains. One group started from the east side hiking up the New Canyon trail until they reached the crest and then proceeded to clear deadfall from the Trigo Canyon trail. The other group started at the Trigo Canyon trailhead and continued clearing deadfall from where the previous project ended. In all 90 trees were removed from the trail over the course of the day. There is still a section of the trail that needs to be cleared.
Remove deadfall from the Trigo Canyon Trail. We will start out from the trailhead and hike up to the where the previous project ended and clear any deadfall that crosses the trail. If there is enough people another group will start from the crest and work down the trail.
