WHAT: TRAIL WORKDAY
WHEN: 9AM SATURDAY APRIL 13TH 2024
WHERE: PRESCOTT NATIONAL FOREST, BUCKHORN TRAIL #130
Please check your e-mail or PTR Facebook posts on Saturday morning to ensure nothing has caused the cancellation of the workday!
DIRECTIONS TO STAGING LOCATION: Southeast from Prescott on 69, ~9 miles past Fain Rd and the Maverick gas station, 1.1 miles PAST Poland Jct Rd, ½ mile PAST MP275, turn right on Grapevine Rd. where the HUGE AMERICAN FLAG is. PTR trailer staging is about 0.6 miles on Grapevine Rd/PNF 87A at 9211A intersection (approx. 34.431461, -112.269414), but there is limited parking at this location with a corral. If you bring your motorcycle/UTV, consider parking at about 0.1 miles in from 69 along the right side of Grapevine Rd/PNF87A. Normal 9:00AM mandatory safety meeting at the PTR trailer. Long pants & shirts, leather boots are required. I suggest bringing your own safety glasses & gloves, but PTR has those as well as hardhats, all required.
You will need your UTV/Jeep/motorcycle to travel mostly together ~1/4 miles South on PNF 9211A, thru the double green gate to the location of the first 130 trail sign that we have been driving past for the last months! Saturday the 13th, weather permitting, will be the day we finish 130. We will have a Jeep or UTV bring work tools & hardhats to about 1/8 mile up the wash on 130 until the trail starts up the hill. Some will ride motorcycles up the hill and start working downhill from our ending location last month, the rest can walk uphill working to bring the trail identifiable. Bring your own water & snacks for the trail.
Lunch is provided by PTR back at the trailer about 1:00pm.
