Final workday of the season on TRT

Join the Tahoe Rim Trail Association for the End of Season Workday celebration on the Tahoe Rim Trail Oct. 9 from 9am-4pm.

Volunteering to build trails is a great way to give back to the TRT and to meet other trail enthusiasts. he workday will begin at the Kingsbury South Trailhead off Highway 207 in the Heavenly Stagecoach parking lot in Stateline. Tasks will be available for volunteers of all skill levels and physical abilities, from easy to strenuous. After free coffee from Alpen Sierra Coffee Roasting Company in the morning, a trail will built out to a new vista of South Lake Tahoe.

Volunteers will also receive free lunch.

To participate, register on the online events calendar at www.tahoerimtrail.org or call Max at (775) 298/0239.

We will be working on section of rerouted trail near Daggett Summit. The reroute will move 3.8 miles of paved road back into the forest. The construction of these 13 miles of new trail will enhance the safety of trail users, improve recreational opportunities, reduce impacts to sensitive resources, and reduce future maintenance requirements.

Volunteers must wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants, boots and work gloves; bring sunscreen, lunch, bug spray and plenty of water. Check the weather reports and bring additional clothing as necessary. The Tahoe Rim Trail Association will provide hard hats, all trail tools and crew leaders.
