These trails were identified by crew leaders as long-forgotten routes that have not received Forest Service maintenance in many years. Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC)\, they represent an important piece of trail history and craftsmanship that deserves to be preserved.  \nVolunteers will spend the weekend clearing brush\, removing fallen trees\, and restoring sections of trail corridor to help reclaim these historic paths before they are lost to time. We'll be car camping at the trailhead\, enjoying the surrounding wilderness while connecting with fellow trail stewards. This project is a unique opportunity to explore a rarely visited area\, learn about the legacy of CCC trail building\, and play a direct role in protecting an important part of our public lands heritage. No prior trail experience is necessary — all tools and instruction will be provided\, and volunteers of all skill levels are welcome.  \nProject information is subject to change. Crew leaders will communicate via email. Failure to respond to your crew leader may result in being dropped from the project. See our FAQs\, reach out to your crew leader\, or contact ITA staff at trails@idahotrailsassociation.org if you have questions.  \nTrails: Raven Gulch #142 and Barton Creek #140  \nItinerary: This is a weekend project. The crew leader will specify the meeting time and place in their pre-trip emails. Meeting Saturday morning for a day of trail work\, camping nearby. Finishing Sunday afternoon.    \nFood Provided by ITA: No    \nGear Packing List:  Gear Checklist for Car Camping\, Bring Your Own Food    \nCrew Leader: Tony Berns  \nEstimated Drive Time from Closest Town: 50 minutes from Wallace  \nTrail Map: Click for trail map and elevation profile for Barton Creek and Raven Gulch  \nRefundable deposit: $25   \nWhy 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.   \nDifficulty Rating  \nHike: 4/5 Strenuous– Both trails are uphill and climb almost 1\,000 feet per mile\, but there is so much to do on the trail that we will be mostly working slowly up the climbs\, so we won't be gaining elevation too quickly. Volunteers will be hiking carrying day packs and tools.  \nProject Work: 3/5 Moderately Strenuous– Variety of project work including cutting logs\, brushing\, and digging tread. Volunteers can pick trail duties based on comfort and ability level and are encouraged to work at their own pace.  \nVolunteer Spots Available: 0 of \nIf there are no volunteer spots available\, click “Sign Up” to get on our waitlist for this project! \nWaitlist Signups: 0 \nSign Up×Sign Up\n\n \n \n Waitlist Sign-up\n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n This is a waitlist signup form not a signup to register for the project.
