Volunteer: Adopt-a-Trail 2026Our maintenance team works hard but it's often difficult to get to our trails on the regular, especially some of the harder hikes. Volunteers can help us keep an eye on trail conditions, do some light trim work, clean up trash, and remove minor obstacles. Notify the park staff for downed trees or other issues. With this program you choose a section of trail and take care of it for whatever time fits your schedule to keep our trails looking beautiful!
