Project Description
Soak in the early-summer sun as you ascend from the San Poil River valley with a PNTA crew maintaining the PNT on Tenmile TR 025.
We’ll use loppers and handsaws to trim back brush, saplings and branches growing in the trail, and dirt work tools to spot repair the tread and clear drains along the way.
On Sunday we’ll hop over to the next section of the PNT nearby at Swan Lake, to complete maintenance of Swan Butte Cutoff TR 5314-640.
No trail crew experience necessary: the PNTA provides tools, personal protective equipment, and training. Just bring yourself, your daypack, and a thirst for a rewarding day on the trail!
