Annual 'Give Back to Trails' Event

Table Mountain Wilderness!

This trail maintenance event is a way for all of us to get together, share our passion for Wilderness, and have a great time while working towards a common goal of keeping trails accessible in our beautiful state. This year, we will be joining forces with our local chapter of Backcountry Hunters and Anglers (BHA).  

Join us in beautiful Table Mountain Wilderness, in central Nevada for this rewarding project. We will be camping at the trailhead and hiking into the Wilderness to work. The trail work will involve cutting back vegetation as well as mitigating water damage along the trail from the heavy snow melt and rainstorms in 2023. Bring your fishing gear to pass the time in the late afternoon after a day of trail work! 

Volunteer trail maintenance is hard work, but it is also very rewarding and lots of fun. You will leave this project with a sense of accomplishment, some new skills, and hopefully some new friends! So please, read the info below and RSVP today!
