All are welcome to join veteran A.T. volunteers with the Keystone Trails Association (KTA) on Saturday, Oct. 31 from 9 am - 3 pm in making sure this legendary trail stays in prime shape for day, section, and thru hikers! No experience required. Under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. KTA's A.T. Section Committee maintains the A.T. in the Lehigh Valley of Pennsylvania from Lehigh Furnace Gap to Little Gap, plus three adjoining trails, the North Trail, the South Trail and the Winter Trail. From raking and digging trail segments to trimming back encroaching vegetation, to painting blazes, we're sure to find something you can do. And wait till the end of the day, when we get to admire our hard work! We'll scout the Trail closer to the event to determine specific tasks, but it will likely include cutting back brush, weeds, etc. in several locations. Due to ever-changing weather conditions, it is necessary for all participants to prepare properly for the day ahead. All participants should carry no less than 2 quarts of water, food for the day, a rain jacket, and a warm, insulating layer. Hand tools and personal protection equipment are provided, but you are welcome to bring your own, if you prefer. Questions? Please contact Jenn Ulmer, KTA Manager of Trail Maintenance and Training, at ulmer@kta-hike.org or Jim Foster, KTA A.T. Committee Chair, at ktalehighgapat@gmail.com.
