The Colorado Trail Foundation seeks trail crew volunteers for 2023

Online registration for 2023 trail crews opened this week, and the Colorado Trail Foundation needs your help to preserve The Colorado Trail!

Volunteer Trail Crews vary in length from one to eight days. We provide training, tools, hardhats, meals (except for vehicle-supported hike-in and backpack crews), group camp equipment, and leadership. Volunteers are responsible for their own transportation to the crew location and for their personal equipment, including tent or camper, sleeping bag, sleeping pad, dishes and eating utensils, work clothes, and other personal items, as applicable. Crews typically involve a hike to the project site but basecamp crews may require a drive and a hike each day if the campsite is not within reasonable hiking distance of the project site. Week-long (7 or 8 day) crews typically include a day off mid-week. Contact the Crew Leader for crew specifics.

The Colorado Trail Foundation has had a ton of registrations, and their crews are already 33% full! Don't wait to register and miss out on your favorite crew this year.
