Riverside - Volunteer Event - Forest Health - Thinning
There are currently no future events scheduled.
Come join us near Bowl & Pitcher to thin a stand of overcrowded trees along Trail 211 (handsaws/loppers). Removing some trees will allow mature trees to grow larger, helps more light reach the forest floor to support understory vegetation, and reduces the fuel load in the event of a fire.
What to bring:
-Discover Pass (we can supply one for the event)
-Gloves & Eye Protection (we have some to share)
-Warm layers, rain gear
-Minors only: Note from guardian granting permission to attend the event
