Overview

Come explore the backstage of the Appalachian Trail. We'll be maintaining the critical boundary lines of the protected land corridor that surrounds the A.T. This off-trail work moves at a slow pace over varied terrain. We'll be clipping brush along the boundary of National Park Service lands between the Mass Pike and Upper Goose Pond, including a likely stop for lunch at the Upper Goose Pond cabin. Work is off-trail, up and down hills, with occasionally wet areas or heavy brush. Expect some stooping to clip back brush to maintain a clear line of sight along the boundary. Do wear sturdy shoes that can get wet and muddy. Long pants required, long sleeves, work gloves recommended. Dress for weather conditions. Bring lunch/snacks and water to drink. Expect to spend the full day in the woods. Rain will cancel.
