SUMMARY:TSI Advanced Trail School: Trail Building Start to Finish - 3/8
DESCRIPTION:Join NWTA’s Trail Sustainability Institute (TSI) for an Advanced Trail School that covers the soup to nuts of trail building! \n\n\n\n\nregister here\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAre you curious about how to build a trail from start to finish? Join NWTA’s Trail Sustainability Institute (TSI) for an Advanced Trail School that will take volunteers through the process of determining where to place a trail\, all the way through to finished single track.  \n\n\n\nWhat are we doing?: The day will involve sustainable trail placement\, flagging\, considering sightlines\, corridor clearing\, establishing tread\, determining drainage considerations\, re-naturalizing disturbed surroundings and finishing work.  \n\n\n\nWhat to bring: \n\n\n\n\nWarm clothing and extra layers.\n\n\n\nRain jacket (and rain pants if you have them and the weather calls for it): It’s February in the PNW\, odds are high it will rain\, but that doesn’t stop us from digging!\n\n\n\nGloves (waterproof are best): It wouldn’t hurt to bring an extra pair\, too.\n\n\n\nSturdy shoes\n\n\n\nHelmet or hard hat (required)\n\n\n\nEye protection\n\n\n\nWater\n\n\n\nSnacks and lunch\n\n\n\n\nAny necessary tools will be provided. You are not required to bring any of your own. \n\n\n\nQuestions? Shoot them to Nancy Stone at nancys@nw-trail.org

Washington County Parks has received approval from the Bureau of Land Reclamation for a 1/2 mile – 1 mile re-route to restore access to the trail. We are building that section of trail. It will likely include installation of a short bridge\, one culvert\, 3+ rock sections\, 3+ climbing turns\, and potentially retaining walls. For this work party\, we’ll be continuing construction of the new section – and potentially one or more of the planned features.\n\n\n\nEquipment we will be using will include\, but not be limited to: rakes\, McLeods\, Pulaskis\, hoes\, shovels\, chainsaws\, hand saws\, loppers\, wheelbarrows\, buckets\, and others. Tools will be provided; however\, if you’d like to bring additional tools\, you are welcome and encouraged to do so.\n\n\n\nEquipment needed: helmet (cycling helmets are OK)\, long pants\, sturdy\, comfortable footwear\, and good work gloves. We can help ensure you have a helmet\, if needed. Long sleeve shirts are recommended. If conditions are wet\, rain gear is recommended.\n\n\n\n\nOther Notes: \n\n\n\n\nDrinks\, snacks\, and swag won’t be provided at the end of this event. Please bring water and snacks to keep with you at the work site.\n\n\n\nParking passes will be provided; no parking fee is required.\n\n\n\nVolunteer waivers will be available at the work site. They will need to be signed prior to beginning work. If possible\, please sign the online waiver attached with this invitation prior to arrival.\n\n\n\nNWTA volunteer hours will be logged for you.\n\n\n\nVolunteers under age 18 will need a parent or supervising adult with them.\n\n\n\nThe nearest restrooms are at: Eagle Point Recreation Area (34)\, Elks Creek (1)\, Sain Creek Recreation Area (13)\, & C-Ramp Recreation area (14).\n\n\n\nThe nearest market is 7-Star Convenience Store (formerly Lake Stop Grocery) on Old 47\, shortly before the park entrance.\n\n\n\nIf you need documents signed proving work completed\, we will have staff available to sign them.\n\n\n\nYou’re welcome and encouraged to ride the trail after the work party; we can store bikes in a very safe area while working\, if needed!\n\n\n\nIf you have any questions\, please contact me: Dan Werle // (503) 719-3226 // danwerle@gmail.com
