Volunteer Trail Crew at Talking Brook Public Land
May 29 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Wednesday, May 29th, 10:00 am: Today we’ll be at Talking Brook Public Land in New Gloucester! There are a couple of bridges and bog bridges suspectable to floating away or shifting with flooding on the Green and Yellow Trails. We will secure them to the ground with rebar, predrilling the sleepers before driving in the rebar with a sledgehammer. Some of the trail sections will be very muddy or over a stream, so boots are recommended. There will also be general trail maintenance to do in preparation for the volunteer appreciation picnic, so we’ll need all hands on deck!
RRCT will bring the rebar, a drill, sledgehammer, a level, loppers, handsaws, a pole saw, and other necessary tools. Bring extra trail maintenance tools, work gloves, a water bottle, and good boots!
Parking is available on the right-hand shoulder of Woodman Road, at the northern end of Woodman Road in New Gloucester. GPS Address for parking and trailhead: 402 Woodman Road, New Gloucester.
