Backcountry Rise Trail Work Party

  • Mt St Helens Science and Learning Center (map)

We will be hosting a trail work day on the Backcountry Rise course right at the event venue! Volunteers are welcome to CAMP WITH US in the Field Camp at Mt. St. Helens Science & Learning Center on Saturday (June 25th) night before the work day. There is no fee to park or camp if you are volunteering Sunday!

Trail work activities will involve cutting overgrown brush and grasses away from the 3/4 mile long Elk Bench Trail, as well as raking the trail tread of forest debris, then hike out on the same trail.

For the work day, bring a sense of adventure, a lunch, water, as well as work gloves, eye protection, hardhat or bike helmet, long pants, long sleeve top and sturdy boots/shoes. Volunteers are welcome to bring their own loppers, pruning saw and other hand tools as well.

All trail work volunteers earn credits toward Daybreak race registration fees.

Please RSVP below and we will send out an email with all the details!
