Project Update: The scope and location of this project have changed. Updates below and please see the latest crew leader email for full details.
Project Name: Tillicum Creek Trail (Formally Upper Priest River)
Project Dates: August 28-30
This project was moved to Tillicum Creek Trail #261 and is now a Women Only Weekend! Just south of the Canadian border, this trail system begins in one of the largest remaining tracts of intact old-growth forest in the Pacific Northwest. From camp, the crew will work on the nearby Tilllicum Trail, a scenic route that follows the creek through shaded forest and provides access to the surrounding backcountry. This section of the trail will require brushing, log removal, and tread improvements to maintain safe and sustainable passage. Camp will be set stunning old-growth western red cedar forest that makes this project truly special

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 reservations. 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.
