Project Description
Pack support volunteers help move supplies from the trailhead to PNTA trail crews working in the backcountry. With your help, our backcountry trail crew will be able to stay out in the field longer and get more work done on the beautiful Bell Pass Trail segment of the PNT.
Pack Support Volunteers
At this event, volunteers will hike 4 miles from the popular Park Butte Trailhead to our base camp in Mazama Park. We will spend the day hiking along the Park Butte Trail, known for stunning alpine views of Mt Baker, the Twin Sister Range, and the iconic Park Butte Lookout.
If you enjoy hiking to scenic spots on the PNT and are able to carry a bear-resistant canister weighing 15-20 pounds, this event is a great way to get involved and give back to trails.
Volunteer Shuttle
Space is limited at the Park Butte Trailhead and it can be a long drive. Registered volunteers are welcome to ride share with PNTA staff from our headquarters in downtown Sedro-Woolley, or from Concrete.
Mt Baker and the Park Butte Lookout
Bonus Side Trip
Volunteers will enjoy magnificent views of glacier-clad Mt Baker from the resupply route. They can also take the opportunity to visit the iconic Park Butte Lookout just 0.8 miles off the route.
