Join our CFPA Trail Crew as we rebuild a critical bridge on the Mohawk Trail. Volunteers will assist with filling gabion cages with stone that will serve as piers for the boardwalk and abutments for the main bridge. We will be using a power wheelbarrow, a rigging highline, heavy canvas dirt bags and our hands to move rock and fill the gabion cages.
Come prepared to get wet, dirty and have fun. There is a short hike from the trailhead to the worksite. At times we may need to get in the water, bushwhack, and hike off-trail on uneven terrain.
This project will include a follow-up work party on 8/3 to finish the decking and add bridge abutment steps.
Please bring LOTS of water, snacks, bug spray, sun block, lunch, rain gear, work gloves, backpack to carry your gear, and any personal items you need to spend a few hours in the woods. Please be sure to wear long pants & sturdy closed-toe shoes. No pets please.
We will meet at 9:00am at the Hubbard Field. Please be prompt, once we begin our hike to the worksite you may not be able to find us! Directions to parking are here: Google Directions Link
Thanks for your support of CFPA and the Blue-Blazed Hiking Trails!
