SUMMARY:2026 Copper Creek - Youth
DESCRIPTION:Project Name: Copper Creek – Youth   \nDates: June 21 – June 27   \nITA's Youth Trail Crew Program provides opportunities for youth ages 14-18 to learn about the outdoors while building and maintaining hiking trails in a safe\, teamwork-oriented environment.  \nAlong Idaho's Rapid River Wild and Scenic River\, ITA will host a weeklong youth trail project for ages 14–18\, focused on improving the Copper Creek and Trail Creek Trails. These routes climb out of the Rapid River corridor into the surrounding mountains\, offering rewarding views of big terrain. The crew will meet at the Rattlesnake Trailhead\, where Heaven's Gate Outfitters will provide pack support to transport food and some personal gear into a Heaven's Gate Outfitter camp. This camp—home to one of ITA's earliest youth projects—offers a scenic base with easy access to swimming and fishing in Rapid River just a short hike from camp.  \nITA's youth projects are completely free for volunteers to join\, and all food is provided. Gear can be borrowed from ITA if needed with advance notice\, or youth may apply for scholarships to purchase gear they need through the Splattski Outdoor Access Fund.   \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: Rattlesnake Trail #166\, Rapid River Trail #177\, Copper Creek Trail #190\, Trail Creek Trail #185.  \nItinerary: This is a Sunday–Saturday project. Parent and volunteer engagement begins with a pre-trip Zoom meeting for all volunteers well ahead of the project. On Sunday\, the crew will hike in and establish a backcountry base camp. Trail work will take place Monday through Friday\, with the crew working from camp and returning each afternoon\, and a potential mid-week rest or exploration day. On Saturday\, the outfitter will arrive and the group will pack up camp and hike back to the trailhead for pickup.  \nFood Provided by ITA: Yes – Cook   \nGear Packing List: Gear Checklist for Pack Supported Projects\, Food Provided  \nCrew Leader: Taylor Mailly and Ted McManus   \nEstimated Drive Time from Closest Town: 20 minutes from Riggins   \nTrail Map: Click for trail map and elevation profile  \nYouth Trip Selection:   \nYouth trip sign-ups will be open until March 22nd. Although early sign-ups will be prioritized\, ITA leadership and staff may adjust the final crews to maximize trip experience and provide opportunities for the greatest number of youth participants. To help facilitate trip assignments\, please sign up for your preferred trip and include alternate trips you could participate in\, should the preferred trip not be available. You will receive notification of trip assignment via email prior to March 31st.  \nDifficulty Rating:  \nHike: 4/5 Strenuous The hike to camp is approximately 6 miles. The hike out on the final day includes a steep uphill climb\, but the crew will plan an early departure to take advantage of cooler morning temperatures. Participants will carry day packs and tools\, with pack support assisting with heavier gear. See the linked map for the elevation profile.  \nProject Work: 3/5 Moderately Strenuous Trail work will include extensive brushing and tree and log removal\, along with digging and swinging tools to reestablish proper tread width and slope. Volunteers will carry day packs and tools while working from camp each day.   \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.
