    Default Trail Maintenance Volunteer Call

    I just started this new forum so that trail organizations can post notices asking for trail maintainers for open sections, post notices about work crews (Like Hardcore) and other vital information to help keep our trails open and in working order.

    To the trail organizations and maintainers:
    My personal feeling is that there are a lot of folks out there that want to help with trail maintenance but don't know how to get involved, this is the place to help them.

    And to the hikers:
    Trail maintenance is very fun and even more rewarding at the end of the day. Try it, once the bug has bit you, you will never look at hiking the same way.

    Recommended format:

    Who: Point of contact with contact information for person sponsoring and/or organizing the work.

    What: Type of call i.e. trail maintainer opening, work call for a work trip, etc.

    When: Time and date for link up plus duration of the work.

    Where: Trail name, link up site, and general description of the area to be worked on.

    Why/How: post pertinent information such as bring a lunch, bring gloves, long pants, water needed - none on the section, etc.
