This week we'll work on brushing and sight line work along the northern side of Fall River. We started to clear this section last summer but need to finish it up. We need your energy and enthusiasm to get this work done. No experience necessary.
Where: We'll meet this week at the Tubes in the FIRST parking area. There will be a COTA sign on the road to help you out. We'll need to hike for about 15 minutes from the parking lot to get to the work site. There will be a COTA sign board out on South Century Drive (approximately 5 miles from Thousand Trails Campground) indicating the left turn onto the dirt road.
