Description

Join CFPA for a work party to help relocate a closed section of the Mattatuck Trail in Wolcott. Projects will include clearing the new trail corridor, uprooting brush, removing old blazes, closing the old trail corridor, sidehilling and raking. 

All tools provided. All skills welcome. Come prepared to get dirty and have fun. We may be working on steep terrain and may be hiking more than one mile each way over the course of the work party.

Jeff and Peter, both Trail Managers for CFPA, will meet you at 1034 Spindle Hill Rd at 9AM. Please note, this is at a private residence. Directions to parking are here: Google Maps Link.

Please bring LOTS of water (even more than you think you'll need), snacks, bug spray, bug net, sunblock, lunch, rain gear, work gloves, backpack to carry your gear, and any personal items you need to spend a few hours in the woods. Be sure to wear long pants & sturdy closed-toe shoes, long sleeves are recommended. There is always the risk of poison ivy and ticks. No pets please.

Thanks for your support of CFPA and the Blue-Blazed Hiking Trails!
