Join INLC and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service on Tuesday, June 23 from 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM to pull down an old chain-link fence and clear the way for wetland restoration. We’ll remove posts, cut and roll the fencing, and set some aside to reuse for a temporary trail closure. The cleared site becomes a deposit area for gravel hauled out of the restoration zone – so this is hands-on work that literally opens the path for the machines to create new wetland areas safely.

What to expect:

• This project will be taking place off-trail, over uneven terrain, and over a mile from the trailhead. Volunteers should be able to lift and carry at least 30 lbs independently.

What will be provided:

• Power and hand tools to support removal, vehicles and trailers to haul fencing away, gloves and hard hats, extra drinking water.

What to bring:

• Sturdy boots or shoes, weather appropriate layers, a lunch, plenty of drinking water.

Good to know:

• No established restroom on site! Only trees! Plan accordingly!
• Dress for the weather and expect a bit of dirt—this is a hands-on project!
