May. 252019

STRONG — Volunteers who want a chance to get outdoors in the Rangeley region backcountry, learn new, or practice, trail-building skills and take part in an important community effort may help the Peaks Alliance build the northern section of the Fly Road Crosby Trail.
The work will involve clearing brush, establishing water bars, building bog bridges and marking the trail with paint and signs.
No special skills or experience are required. Volunteers only need bring a smile, water, a bag lunch, bug dope, sunscreen, work gloves, safety glasses and boots.
