Volunteer Trail Work Project

2024 West Fork Mink Creek

Loading Events

Join us on National Trails Day for a project working to improve the West Fork Mink Creek Trail. We’ll be working on improving drainage, tread, and clearing brush. We’ll also work to fill in bridge approaches to help keep them from eroding into the creek. This popular trail connects to form endless loop options in the area for day hikers!
