Trail and Habitat Restoration Work Days
Each month, the second Saturday is designated for Trail Work and the third Saturday is designated for Habitat Restoration Work. Volunteers meet at the Visitor Center at 9 a.m. for Trail work and and 10 am for Habitat restoration to begin work with rangers and/or volunteer leaders. Tools are provided. Only gloves and other personal protective items (e.g., masks) are needed by volunteers. Trail work typically involves clearing brush from the trail sides, cleaning out drain dips, raking out trail bends, and cutting overhanging branches. Habitat Restoration often involves removing invasive plants (like the ever-present thistle) from trailside areas, maintaining the Native Plant Garden at the Visitor Center, or planting new vegetation. These work parties typically last about 3 hours, i.e., until noon or 1 pm.
