Trail Work June 29th – Emerald Canyon Laguna Beach

Ready for physical challenge? Join the OC Platoon for fun day of hard work at Emerald Canyon Trail in Crystal Cove. We will be hiking so be ready to step off at 0800. If you use the wilderness parks for hiking, biking, photography or just relaxing, Trail Stewardship might be right up your alley! This is FUN hard work. Whatever your skill level is, there is a job to do: clearing drains to get the water off of the trail, pruning vegetation back to keep users on the trail, moving dirt to rebuild eroded tread, and restoring impacted areas are just some of the tasks we will accomplish. We will be using tools such as loppers, picks, shovels, and McLeods to improve the user experience, protect the fragile habitat and increase the sustainability of our trails. Expect to hike up to 4 miles while carrying tools.   Please note: For safety reasons, we limit the number of participants for this event. If after you reserve your spot, you realize you cannot attend, please cancel your reservation via email to kpugh@missioncontinues.org so that the reservation will be available for another volunteer.   Pre-registration on lagunacanyon.org is required for this event.
