Saturday July 13 Volunteer Trail Work Day

Join Mancos Trails Group Saturday July 13, for a fun and rewarding day clearing brush and repairing drainage features on the West Mancos Trail. 



We will meet at 8:30am at the Transfer Trailhead just east of the Transfer Campground, up Road 42. Look for the Mancos Trails banner. Depending on the number of volunteers, we’ll divide into groups.


Don’t worry, we will take rest breaks for food and water as needed and there is no obligation to complete a certain amount of work. We are required to have fun, socialize, and enjoy a day in the woods with like minded folks and improvement our trails along the way!


We’ll plan on being back at the trailhead between 1 and 2PM for burgers and refreshments.


Weather:
The weather forecast for our location, in the vicinity of Transfer Campground, calls for a high of 78 with a 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon. Please come prepared!

What to wear:
Wear long pants and closed-toe shoes or boots and bring sunglasses or safety glasses, work gloves and rain gear. You know what Southwest Colorado weather can be like, so it's best to be prepared for anything!  


What to bring:


  • Water - We'll be out on the trail for several hours
  • Snacks - We're providing burgers and drinks but we won't be back to our vehicles till around 1 or 2pm. If you'll be hungry before then, pack some snacks or a sandwich. 
  • Work gloves
  • Tools - Bring loppers and pruning saws if you have any. We'll be providing some tools, but if you have any please bring them!




Where, when and what:
We'll meet at 8:30am at the Transfer Trailhead just east of the Transfer Campground. Just drive about 15 minutes up County Road 42 from the intersection with Hwy. 184 in Mancos. Look for the Mancos Trails banner.


If you're late:
Just check in with the MTG representative at the trailhead for directions.
