Directions will be sent to registered participants 5-6 days prior to the event. Carpooling is encouraged.
Toilet available at this location.
No permits required.
After we arrive, we will gear up, do introductions and make our way to the trailhead to meet our Community Stewardship partner, Skagit Trail Builders. It is about a 10 minute walk from the parking area to the trailhead.
We will have a better idea of what our specific stewardship or conservation activities will be closer to our trip date. This will be communicated to you in the Hello Hiker email that will be sent out a few days before our trip.
- We plan to arrive at the Pump House Trailhead at 8:50 am so we have time to sign in before we start our safety meeting. We work 9am-4pm, rain or shine.
- There are a variety of "jobs" available, all levels welcome.
