Details:

The purpose of this event is to engage community partners in trail operations and planning on the Cleveland National Forest, specifically the Palomar and Descanso Ranger Districts which surround the greater San Diego area.  Through community partnership, the U.S. Forest Service will expand its ability to deliver high quality outdoor trail recreation opportunities, preserve natural and cultural resources, and grow public land stewardship.

 

This event is split into two parts; the first two days will involve presentations by the U.S. Forest Service and partners.  The second half will involve field training and certification of trail crew leaders for qualified individuals.
