Construction and Maintenance Work Parties Help construct and maintain the Iron Goat Trail by participating in a construction or maintenance work party. Typical tasks are clearing and excavating for trail tread and constructing drainage structures.
Work parties are fun and rewarding, but they are hard work and can be strenuous.
Participants need to be in good physical condition, although not everyone will need to move boulders as shown in the photo on the right. Some tasks are as easy as pruning off protruding branches with loppers. Groups as well as individuals are encouraged to participate. Flexibility is vital to effective scheduling of trail construction and maintenance work parties. Work project and site location for each work party will vary due to weather, specific needs and work party strength.
