ECTA Adopt-A-Trail Work Day with Taos Women’s Outdoor Adventurers and ECTA for a trail maintenance day on the Yerba Canyon trail.

When: May 9th 8:30 AM – 3:30 PM
Where: Meet at the Yerba Canyon Trailhead (36.569299, -105.518389)
What to Expect: A day filled with fun and trail maintenance with a group of rad, hardworking women. Work may consist of basic trail maintenance: improving drainage, tread, and clearing vegetation and downed logs from the trail. We’ll be using tools like pick mattocks, McLeods, shovels, loppers, crosscut saws, axes, and hand saws.

We will be hiking anywhere from 2-4 miles roundtrip. The trail starts at 8,000′ and ascends 1,000 feet every mile. It’s steep in sections with uneven footing and creek crossings.

What to Bring: Please wear long pants, sturdy hiking shoes/work boots, work gloves, and eye protection (sunglasses okay). Bring a day pack with plenty of food and water, sunscreen, layers, and rain gear.

*We will be on the trail all day and not returning to the cars for lunch*

ECTA will provide the hard hats and tools.

We hope to see you there!
