There’s no better way to show love for Scotchman Peaks than volunteering for a trail crew. It’s the work that keeps our wild backyard open for everyone.
You don’t need experience to join one of our trail projects – just a willingness to learn. Our staff and volunteer trail leads will teach you everything you need to know about trail safety, cross-cut saw techniques, weed identification, trail building methods, and more.
See our Trail Work Schedule below and sign up today!
