Please come join us for a Catamount Trail Work Day from Lincoln Gap to West Hill Road on Sunday, Nov. 2nd. (Rain/Bad Weather date Nov 9th). This is a great way to explore and build a connection with this remote section of the CT before the snow comes!
MEET: 9:00 AM on West Hill Road in Warren, about ¼-mile south of the West Hill House B&B.
DURATION: For those who have the time and inclination to cover the whole section, it usually takes around 5 hours depending on how much work there is to be done. If you can only make it for an hour or two, we’d still be grateful for your help! You can head in directly from West Hill Road and work toward the south on an out-and-back for whatever time you can spare.
CAR LOGISTICS: Leaving a couple cars at West Hill Rd, we will carpool to Lincoln Gap on the Warren side, hike up the closed section of the road, and then work our way north on the Trail down to West Hill Road.
WHAT TO WEAR/BRING: After walking up Lincoln Gap Rd, the terrain is rugged, remote and wet in places – waterproof boots, work gloves, gaiters, warm layers, food, water, and hot drinks recommended. We’ll have several pairs of loppers to share, a hand saw, and a chainsaw, but if you have your own favorite trail tools, feel free to bring them along. Cell coverage is spotty.
Please call/text Audrey at 802-595-2367 or email audreya@madriver.com by 8:00 PM on Saturday if you plan to join. Thank you!
