Location: Blacks Creek 

We need 30 to 40 people willing and able to perform easy to moderate work on the trails. The plan is to meet about a ¼ mile east of the Bender Creek Trailhead, Saturday morning. We’ll have a short riders/workers meeting, split up into groups and hit the trails. Please be ready to ride and work around 10am.

We’ll be under contract with the Forest Service. Most hand tools will be provided but if you can, please bring a small shovel, hoe or similar tool. If you can carry a chainsaw or brush cutter, then please bring it. A few chain saws are needed.

Please dress accordingly (for work and riding to the site). If you are able to safely carry a “trail tool” such as a Shovel, Pulaski, Hoe, or McCloud, on your bike, even better. Nobody will carry tools for you. The Forest Service is unable to access many trails so WE WILL need to be able to carry tools.

Please bring a digital camera! Or a cell phone with a camera!! We need before and after photos!! We will have small notebooks for each trail crew. (We will need detailed notes so I can fill out all the trail forms to submit to the Forest Service.)

The weather is supposed to be perfect! Heck, it’s always perfect in Idaho! Again, you will need to ride your bike to work sites on the trail system so please bring your bike, riding gear, trail food, water, etc. When the work is complete, you may want to go ride for fun!

All skill levels are welcome!

Also, we will have a fully-catered dinner for all work participants around 5:00 pm Saturday evening. If you work or volunteer in any way for this event, you can eat! We could use some volunteers for food serving and cleanup too. It’s not difficult. All that’s needed is a bit of your time.

Much of the money raised by your efforts on Saturday will be donated to various pro-multiple use access advocacy groups such as the Idaho Recreation Council and The Blue Ribbon Coalition.
