Join the Great Divide Trail Association for a base camp trail building trip on the High Rock Trail. Base camp facilities include shared kitchen and dining shelters, a fire pit, and a latrine. The crew will be building new single-track trail on the slopes below Mt. Erris. Volunteers must be able to hike up to 5 km per day carrying daypacks and tools.
We require at least one volunteer with chainsaw training certification. If you’re interested in getting trained and certified to use a chainsaw, let us know!
- Volunteers are responsible for bringing their own clothing and camping gear, e.g. tent, sleeping bag.
- Volunteers are responsible for bringing and cooking their own food.
- While trail building experience is not mandatory, volunteers should have experience backcountry camping and hiking.
- Trips are free for GDTA Members.
- Carpooling assistance will be coordinated by the GDTA this year for those interested.
- The GDTA will provide all trail maintenance tools, tool training, and safety orientation for all trips.
