Come join Trailkeepers of Oregon and the Oregon Mountain Bike Coalition as we team up for a special trail stewardship day, capping off another successful Oregon Trails Summit with tools-to-trail! Plan to hike less than a mile to the work area and work using hand digging tools, loppers, and hand saws. We prioritize safety and fun over quantity of work accomplished and encourage people to try different things and work at a comfortable pace. No experience is necessary — you’ll be working with experienced crew leaders who will teach you all you need to know. We’ll end the day with Summit-provided lunch.
