Weekend Warrior Camp Marlette Peak August 26-28, 2022

Join the TRTA for our second Weekend Warrior Camp at Marlette Peak. Our work will focus on maintaining key sections of trail. 

What to Expect

This is a weekend trail work camp, and we will be camping within a couple of miles from the worksite and parking our high clearance vehicles close to where we will be camping. Additional parking exists near the paved road if folks do not wish to take their vehicle down a dirt road.  Folks will show up Friday evening and start work on Saturday morning.   Meals will be prepared by a camp cook and all meals will be provided. Please bring your own camping gear. This camp is rated moderate but only because all trail work and camping requires using tools and getting dirty.

Please email  KristineK@tahoerimtrail.org if you have any questions.

Schedule

Participants will meet Friday at 3:30 near the entrance of Spooner Lake State Park. We’ll caravan to our campsite near the worksite. We’ll camp for two nights, spending Saturday and half of Sunday working on the Sand Harbor Vista Trail near Marlette Peak Campground.

What to Bring

All volunteers must dress appropriately for each day of work, including long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and sturdy, closed-toe shoes. You should also bring everything you need for three days and two nights, including camping and cooking gear, warm clothes, etc. Plan to bring containers (water bottles, bladders, etc.) for at least 3 liters of water, sunglasses or other eye protection, sunscreen, medications, and other personal items you’ll need. Don’t have all the fancy stuff? Just let us know; we have the gear to loan out. The TRTA will provide breakfast, lunch, and dinner, experienced crew leaders, tools, and required safety equipment such as hard hats and gloves.

Who to Bring

Camping gear, but this camp does not require previous camping experience. This is an appropriate opportunity for people looking to spend their first night in a tent. Minors aged 16+ are welcome as long as a parent or legal guardian accompanies them. Please fill out the Parent/Guardian Permission Form.

Come out and help build some great trails!
