Come and join us on National Trails Day to learn about elements of trail design, construction, and maintenance that help improve the longevity and environmental responsibility of DuPont's trail system.
If you travel the many diverse trails of DuPont Forest, you may have noticed changes (subtle or dramatic) that are driven by Sustainable Trails principles. Jane Dauster, our Recreation Specialist has had her hands in most of this work and will present the basics.
We'll begin in the Visitor Center classroom for a slideshow and brief Q&A. We'll then carpool to Three Lakes Trail for a short hike to view both sustainable trail, unsustainable trail, and corrective actions. We will return to the High Falls parking area by 12:30.
Have you ever considered joining our volunteer Trail Crew team but don't know what's involved? Wear sturdy footwear and weather appropriate clothing. Open to the Public.
If it becomes necessary to cancel you'll be notified by email the evening before the event.
