Join us in celebration of Public Lands Day!
At Latir Peak Wilderness
This two-day stewardship project at the Latir Peak Wilderness in the Carson National Forest will focus on clearing Lake Fork and Bull Creek Trails of downed logs for improved visitor access. We will also rehabilitate sites impacted by camping use, and disperse fire rings against wilderness regulations (those too close to trails or water sources) around Heart Lake and along work trails
