Fells Trails Volunteer Day

We’ll be continuing our fall workdays with work on a series of culverts along portions of the Mountain Bike Loop (Green), Reservoir Trail (Orange) and adjacent trails on Saturday, November 15th from 1 PM to 4 PM. We’ll be digging out some good sized culverts along with rock shopping and armoring (rock work) as well as cleaning out some drainage channels. A number of these culverts and channels are large but many have been clogged for some time.

We’ll meet at the Gate 16 Trailhead on Hillcrest Parkway, (its across the street from 74 Hillcrest Parkway) there's plenty of street parking along the Fells side of the road. See the DCR Middlesex Fells Map for specifics . Its about a 10-15 minute walk to the work areas from the trailhead and we'll be carrying shovels and buckets.

Questions or comments, please contact Charlie at chasmccabe@gmail.com.

Please wear pants, tall socks, good sturdy hiking boots or sneakers, and clothes you don't mind getting dirty. We recommend bringing a full reusable water bottle, hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, bug spray. I'll have bug spray, a water jug and snacks to share.

Steady rain or lightning will cancel.
