This section gets cleared of logs each year\, so we're expecting to finish this stretch in this short amount of time. Several more ITA projects will benefit from the work we do this weekend\, as pack stock will be on this trail to support projects all summer long.   \nBeginner-friendly backpacking\, easy elevation hike\, beautiful views of the Selway with a quick overnight camp out in the wilderness\, and some meaningful trail work. What's not to love?!  \nMore info about the Selway River Trail can be found in this ITA trail spotlight\, written by a past crew leader!  \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: Selway River Trail #4  \nItinerary: This is a three-day project\, meeting on Thursday evening and starting work Friday morning. Returning to the trailhead to car camp Friday night. Saturday\, begin backpacking for one overnight\, retuning to cars and heading home Sunday. If needed\, we may have room for folks to arrive Friday evening to work Saturday/Sunday\, please contact trails@idahotrailsassociation.org.   \nFood Provided by ITA: No   \nGear Packing List: Gear Checklist for Backpacking Projects  \nCrew Leader: Ray Arguello and Zac Nichols   \nEstimated Drive Time from Closest Town: Approximately 3 hours from Darby\, Montana   \nTrail Map: Click for trail map and elevation profile   \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 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 – Beginner friendly backpack with easy elevation gain/loss and light packs but still carrying all personal gear 7 miles one way into camp. See the linked map for the elevation profile.  \nProject Work: 3/5 Moderately Strenuous – Crosscut and saw work to remove logs from the trail is the priority\, cutting back and removing brushing growing in the trail if time allows. The weather in May can be unpredictable\, so please pack accordingly!  \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.
