PROJECT DETAILS:

Note new start time of 0730!!!!

The Friends of the Sandia Mountains (FOSM) will continue work on the Cienega-Armijo Trail Improvement Project (CATIP) for the Sandia Ranger District. We will go back to extending a trail which will eventually connect to Faulty Trail, #195.

We will be accessing the work site from private property with limited parking. Because we must carpool to the extent possible and the trails are not well marked, I do not recommend hiking out before we end the work session. The hike in is just over a mile with some steep climbs and rough terrain.

PLEASE RSVP:

So we can plan for tools, hard hats, and transportation, please let me know by email or text 1) IF you plan to participate, 2) IF you will need a hard hat, and 3) IF you have any questions.

START TIME:

Meet at the FOSM shed behind the Sandia Ranger District (SRD) on Thursday 6/27/19 ready to go at 0730. Bring your lunch, snacks, liquids, sunscreen, and insect repellent. Expect hot weather towards midday. We will work until around 1300.

REQUIRED ATTIRE:

The standard USFS trail work PPE requirements apply: approved hard hat, eye protection, no open-toed shoes, work gloves, and pants (no shorts), no exceptions. An approved hard hat can be provided if needed. NOTE: short-sleeved shirts are fine but brushing, including trail obliteration, requires long sleeves.

Weather and trail conditions can change quickly. Please watch for last minute project updates or cancellation.

Thanks. And I can amend this distribution list as desired.
