Join us for an Introduction to Trails & Traditional Skills on the beautiful Palouse Divide! Led by SBFC volunteers, participants will learn essential trail maintenance techniques and traditional tool use at Mary Minerva McCroskey State Park. This historic park features cedar groves, open Ponderosa stands, multi-use trails, and the scenic Skyline Drive. Together, we will clear logs, brush trails, and maintain drainage structures while building skills and connecting with fellow trail stewards.

Join us for pizza and a pre-trip briefing in Moscow, ID on Friday, May 8 (details to follow). Work will occur on Saturday, May 9. All tools and protective equipment (PPE) will be provided. Please bring your own lunch and water for the workday. 

This is a no-fee park. Camping is available for those who wish to stay overnight.
