Overview

We welcome you to celebrate National Trails Day on Saturday June 1st 2024 by participating in trail work alongside our AMC Maine's Trail Work leaders. On this trip, we will be volunteering together at Great Pond Mountain Conservation Trust in Orland, Maine. No prior experience with trail work is necessary, but participants should be in good physical shape and capable of hiking a few miles and performing moderate physical work for a couple hours at a time. Type of work may include: building new trails, widening existing trail corridors, moving stones, and clearing blowdowns. Please bring your own trail work gloves, water, lunch, wear appropriate clothing (long pants/long sleeve shirt, boots, hat, sunscreen, bug spray, etc.). We will have some tools available but if you have your own, please bring them. The trip will meet in the morning and will work for about 6-7 hours. Registration for this trip closes May 26th at 5pm. We will notify all registered participants about 5 days in advance with meeting location, meeting time and weather update.
