National Trails Day is your chance to get outdoors, connect with our members, and give back to the North Country Trail. A mile long section of the trail was logged last fall. We will be cleaning up this section north of HWY 113 in Clearwater Country after a chipping machine has gone through. Bring sturdy garden rakes to clear wood chips off the trail. Backpack blowers may also be helpful. Other tools will be provided by the chapter to renovate damage to the treadway. Bring water and snacks as well as wear sturdy boots and gloves. Ticks and mosquito prevention is necessary as well.
