6 trail building days in June on TRT

Join the Tahoe Rim Trail Association for volunteer trail building workdays in Stateline on the Daggett Summit Trail Project. Workdays are Tuesdays and Saturdays (9am to 4pm) in June.

Learn new skills, meet like-minded trail enthusiasts, and give back to your community by joining a volunteer trail crew. Volunteers of all skill levels and physical abilities are welcome and encouraged to participate—no prior experience necessary. To join a volunteer work crew, register at www.tahoerimtrail.org or contact Amanda at (775) 298.0239 or trails@tahoerimtrail.org. Groups are welcome. Registration is necessary to ensure enough crew leaders, tools and safety gear are in place.

This is the second trail building season of the multi-year Daggett Summit project, which will connect the Tahoe Rim Trail with the Van Sickle State Park, re-route the TRT off of paved roads, and provide views of Lake Tahoe to more people. Last year 3.8 miles of trail were built, with 9 more to go.

Volunteers should bring lunch and water, wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants, boots, work gloves, and bring sunscreen, bug spray, and a backpack. The Tahoe Rim Trail Association will provide hard hats, trail building tools and expert crew leaders.
