Come explore and help improve a developing hiking trail, which will link trails in the Katahdin Iron Works (KI) Road area to the Appalachian Trail. Volunteers will assist with blazing the trail, removing small branches and raking leaves, improving the trail tread, and possibly helping install bog bridging. The trail meanders along uneven terrain beside attractive Vaughn Stream. Hiking distance will depend on the pace of work and involves a return hike. Expect 4 miles of total hiking at most.
Volunteers will meet at 9am at the AMC office, 127 Moosehead Lake Road in Greenville. We will not be carpooling so be prepared to drive on secondary dirt roads to the trailhead.
Please bring lunch, snacks, drinking water, gloves, sunscreen, bug spray, layers, and raingear, as well as loppers, eye protection, and folding handsaws if you've got them. Please wear sturdy footwear and appropriate clothing for trail work. In the case of inclement weather, the event will be cancelled and not rescheduled
For more information, please contact Jenny Ward at (207) 280-0291 or Rex Turner at (207) 441-9152.
