Volunteer Trail Clinic at HTF
Trail clinics are meant for volunteers of all different experience levels. Informative and productive! This week we will look at some rock work and rerouting on Sheep Thrills to improve persistent wet areas of the trail. Bring a bike, bring a tool or just come as you are and join the comradery.
Fellowship of the Wheel is hosting a Trail Clinic! If you have been to one of our trail days in the past, this will look and feel all the same, but is more than just a trail day. This series of Trail Clinics throughout the 2025 season will provide volunteers of all abilities with knowledge about trail construction, the tools for the job, along with the methods needed to safely execute trail work projects.
All trail clinics begin with a discussion about the tools we use, safe operation, and a summary of some trail projects where you can get your hands dirty. Then we’ll head out to the trails as we walk through the steps to install upgrades throughout the network. Expect to walk about 1-2 miles depending on the work site!
