SUMMARY:2026 Liz Butte
DESCRIPTION:Project Name:  Liz Butte  \nProject Dates:   July 6-11  \nIn the Nez Perce Clearwater National Forest\, Liz Butte sits high above the Lochsa River\, between the Clearwater and Bitterroot Mountains. To get to this project\, volunteers will have a chance to explore the Lolo Trail Corridor\, which climbs from Highway 12 and follows ridgelines through old growth forest\, meadows\, and peaks. This corridor is made up of the Nee Me Poo National Historic Trail plus the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail and is about 90 miles long spanning from the western end at Musselshell Meadows to Lolo Pass where it passes into Montana.     \nWith food and a volunteer cook provided\, we'll car camp together in the shade along the road just below the lookout. We'll be a short hike or drive to both the lookout and to the Liz Butte Trail.  There are lots of trees and saw work expected at the beginning where the trail passes through an old burn scar for the first two miles.  The second two miles switchbacks down to Weitas Creek out of the burned areas and will need more tread work and brushing!   \nPart of the Idaho Centennial Trail\, ITA is committed to maintaining sections of this 1000-mile trail each year.  Over the coming years we plan to build off this work and continue this section where it climbs out of the other side of Weitas Creek.  \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: Liz Butte Trail # 649 and Yokum Creek Trail #650  \nItinerary: This is a Monday to Saturday 6 day project. Meet at Liz Butte Monday afternoon to set up camp. Work Tuesday – Friday.  Saturday morning\, clean up camp and head home.    \nFood Provided by ITA: Yes  \nGear Packing List: Gear Checklist for Car Camping\, Food Provided    \nCrew Leader: Clay Jacobson   \nEstimated Drive Time from Closest Town: About 3 hours from Kooskia  \nTrail Map:  Click for trail map and elevation profile   \nRefundable deposit: $50   \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 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.   \nDifficulty Rating  \nHike: 3/5 Moderately Strenuous – 4.3 miles and 2600 feet of elevation loss from the top down to Weitas Creek and depending on trail conditions\, the crew could expect to clear up to this far. The first 1.8 miles are less steep through the burned area\, and the next section is shaded in thicker forest as it switchbacks down to the creek. Carrying day packs and tools. See the linked map for the elevation profile. \nProject Rating: 3/5 Moderately Strenuous – This project will be focused on logout and brushing. This area burned in 2011\, so down trees are expected for repeated saw work; some treadwork may also be needed.     \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.
