Project Description
Grab your gear and get ready for an adventure like no other! Join your teammates for some hands-on, old-fashioned trail maintenance in the stunning Flathead Mountain Range of the Great Bear Wilderness. The Dickey Creek trail can get super brushy, and we need your help to clear it up and make this day hike way more enjoyable for everyone. You’ll be using crosscuts, handsaws, and loppers to open up the trail, plus a little treadwork where needed. It’s the perfect mix of hard work, nature, and teamwork — and a big shoutout to the Glacier Surf Soccer Team for partnering with us on this awesome project! It’s a chance to get outside, make a difference, and have fun with your friends while doing it.
Cancellation Policy
It is very important to know that you are expected to commit to the project once you sign up. All of our projects take a lot of time and effort to organize and we want to make sure that we have full trips so that we can complete the project as outlined by our Forest Service partners. Please do not sign up for a trip unless you are committed to doing it.
We do, of course, understand that things happen and circumstances change, so if you must cancel, please do so as soon as possible. Cancellations made less than 45 days before the trip and no-shows will forfeit their project registration deposit as a cancellation fee.
While uncommon, BMWF may find it necessary to cancel a project due to low volunteer sign-ups or safety reasons (i.e. wildfires), but will contact volunteers as soon as possible and typically no later than two weeks before the project start date. For this reason we strongly recommend volunteers purchase trip insurance when making airline reservations or other travel arrangements.
To see how many spots are available click the SIGN UP button below. The second page will tell you when there are fewer than 4 spots remaining on a trip.
We encourage you to join the waitlist if a trip is full – we often have openings for these spots throughout the summer!
