Overview

West Branch Preserve protects close to 1.5 miles of the West Branch of Davis Stream, one of the major tributaries to Damariscotta Lake. And it is a gem. With over a half dozen miles of trails that go through woods as well as along cascading falls of the stream, it is a great retreat at any time of year. We are likely to work on a variety of tasks for which no experience is required-just an interest in being outside with like-minded others. We may help Conservancy staff rebuild bog bridges, trim vegetation back, clear out fallen branches, perhaps do some blazing-there's plenty to do. Tools will be provided (though you are welcome to bring your own loppers or hand saw if you wish). We just need your good company! The details of starting time that morning and location will be provided once you register. You are also welcome to email or call me before registering. Please call BEFORE 8 pm.

A Maine Master Naturalist, life-long hiker and longtime volunteer trail worker for various organizations, I have recently joined the Maine AMC Trail Leaders team. Few things are better than being outside with others interested in the outdoors and working together to enjoy the pleasure of taking care of trails we use and care about. Hope to see you on the trail!
