Part of the Idaho Centennial Trail\, backpackers\, hot spring enthusiasts\, equestrians\, and boaters all use this trail to access this incredible part of the Frank Church Wilderness. Volunteers will spend eight days immersed in this beautiful area!   \nAfter a scenic backcountry flight into Indian Creek airstrip\, we'll camp a few days nearby to work on some heavier trail rebuilds near Pungo Creek\, alongside Forest Service personnel. After this project\, we'll pack up and move camp east and work our way to the Thomas Creek airstrip. We'll address tread\, logout\, and brushing needs\, bumping camp along as we go. We'll have raft support to help bring our gear down over the week\, so hiking with just our day packs and tools! This fly-in project will give ITA volunteers unique access to the Middle Fork of the Salmon River and its tributaries!  \nProject information is subject to change. Crew leaders will communicate via email.

ITA is sending a crew to spend a week taking in the pristine wilderness and helping repair tread damage caused by effects from a wildfire and flooding along the Salmon River Trail.  The crew will take a thrilling jet boat ride from the Carey Creek boat ramp to camp at Bargamin Creek for the week. From base camp\, the crew will address major tread work on the section of the trail between Bargamin Creek and Rattlesnake Creek. Working with Forest Service staff\, this is a chance for some hands-on experience with big rock work!   \nITA is partnering with the Selway Bitterroot Frank Church Wilderness Foundation\, who will also have a crew out for the duration. This allows us to double up efforts and resources to make a big impact on this section! This section of trail is also part of the Idaho Centennial Trail\, and ITA is committed to maintaining sections of this 1000-mile trail each year.  This is a great project for those looking to get out early in the season and learn or hone in on some more advanced trail work skills for the upcoming year.  \nProject information is subject to change. Crew leaders will communicate via email.

Slight uphill on the way in\, but gradual with ups and downs. Carrying all personal gear and tools. The hike into project work will get longer each day as we cut further in; the trail is 4.7 miles long with a steady uphill climb along the creek to Crescent Meadows. See the linked map for the elevation profile.  \nProject Rating: 3/5 Moderately Strenuous – This project will be focused on logout and brushing. Tools and gear will be carried into the project site\, with some potential to move camp while clearing the trail. This area burned 10 years ago\, so down trees are expected for repeated saw work and some treadwork may also be needed. You can expect a wide range of weather conditions in late May\, 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 Waitlist Sign-up\n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n This is a waitlist signup form not a signup to register for the project.

Participants will fly into Taylor Ranch and work down creek\, traveling deep into the Frank Church–River of No Return Wilderness. The week combines extended backpacking\, remote living\, and hands-on trail work\, offering a realistic look at what it takes to live and work in hard-to-access public lands.  \nThroughout the project\, participants will help maintain an essential corridor along Big Creek by completing brushing\, tread repair\, and slide removal. In addition to trail work\, the crew will connect with professionals working in a range of natural resource careers\, including trail and wilderness operations\, land management\, logistics\, and field-based science. Crew members will also share responsibility for all aspects of camp life\, including camp setup\, water and sanitation\, and tool management\, while building leadership\, communication\, and teamwork skills and practicing Leave No Trace and project safety expectations.   \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.

This project will also ensure that pack support from 51 Ranch will be available to the next ITA crew the following week\, who will be packed further up to work on the Moose Ridge Trail\, which is part of the ICT.

Starting at the Historic Magruder Ranger Station\, we'll backpack south from here\, cutting out logs as we go in a "cut and run" style project. This means more emphasis on log out and opening the trail as far as possible vs focusing on brushing and tread work. This trail is an important access point to the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness\, popular with day hikers and backpackers exploring the Magruder Corridor and an important connecting trail for hunters and outfitters.  \nOn the first night\, we will backpack to Upper Crossing (about 5 miles in) and as work allows bump camp further during the week. There are some great backcountry campsites all along the headwaters of the Wild and Scenic Selway River\, with a chance to cover up to 12 miles. The goal is to cover as much trail as possible during this project.   \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 five-day project. Meeting at the trailhead on the morning of June 10th\, ready to backpack. Bumping camp each night as work allows. On the 14th\, packing up and hiking back to the trailhead to head home!   \nFood Provided by ITA: No   \nGear Packing List: Gear Checklist for Backpacking Projects  \nCrew Leader: Alex Cravener  \nEstimated Drive Time from Closest Town: 1 hour 45 min from Darby\, Montana  \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  \nYou should have experience with backpacking and be in good hiking condition with broken-in and tested gear. This is a remote backcountry project\, so injuries such as sprains and blisters or even extreme fatigue from not being properly conditioned can quickly become a big safety issue. If you are unsure about the proper gear or about preparing for a trip\, please reach out to trails@idahotrailsassociation.org.   \nHike: 4/5 Strenuous – The Selway River gains 2\,500 feet of elevation over 8 miles; but with a gentle slope and following the creek the whole time. Carrying all personal gear and tool in backpacks with no pack support. Downhill on the hike out on the last day! See the linked map for the elevation profile.  \nProject Work: 3/5 Moderately Strenuous – All crosscut and saw work to remove logs from the trail.
