Join us for a day of trail work on the Appalachian Trail and area trails near Hot Springs. This event is designed for individuals who may be new to trail work, including those who work or go to school during the week. You will learn from experienced trail maintainers. All are welcome; no experience is necessary, and you do not need to be a member of the Carolina Mountain Club (CMC) to participate. Families and youth are welcome, though all youth under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent, guardian, or youth organization.
All necessary tools will be provided. Please wear long pants and a long-sleeve shirt. Remember to bring lunch, snacks, and water.
After the workday, join us for an Afterparty at Big Pillow Brewing!
We will have two meeting locations:
8:00 AM: US Forest Service parking lot, 160 Zillcoa St., Asheville, NC 28801. Volunteers meeting here will sign in and carpool to Hot Springs.
9:00 AM: Free parking until 12 midnight at Hot Springs Resort and Spa. Volunteers will gather here to divide into work teams and carpool to the work sites.
