Project Name: Lake Shore Trail – Women in the Wild
Project Dates: May 31 – June 1
ITA’s Women in the Wild trail projects are designed to create a supportive, empowering, and fun environment where women can learn new skills, build confidence, and connect with others who share a love for the outdoors. These all-female trail crews provide a unique space for volunteers to work together, gain hands-on experience in trail maintenance, and make a lasting impact on Idaho’s public lands.
Join us for a Women in the Wild project on Upper Priest Lake, a special opportunity for women to come together and make a lasting impact on the environment. ITA volunteers will focus on clearing fallen logs and brush along the Lakeshore Trail, which winds along the pristine upper western shore of Priest Lake in northern Idaho. This women-only event fosters a supportive and empowering atmosphere as we work side by side to restore the trail for the season. We will be car camping nearby to enjoy the beauty of the lake and connect with fellow women in the outdoors. This annual ITA tradition is dedicated to clearing the trees that fall over the winter, ensuring this gorgeous trail remains open and accessible for all.

Refundable deposit: $25
Why do I need to pay a deposit? We’ve had trouble with people backing out of trips at the last minute which can really affect the productivity of the overall project. By charging a refundable fee, volunteers are less likely to cancel their reservation. Refunds will not be given to volunteers that do not show up or cancel their reservation. Exceptions will be made for medical reasons or unforeseen circumstances. Volunteers can choose to donate the deposit to ITA. All donations are tax-deductible and will go towards maintaining trails throughout Idaho. If you require assistance in paying for this fee, please contact us at trails@idahotrailsassociation.org and we will waive the cost.
