Hey all, wanted to give you all ample opportunity to update your calendars here. This weekend around June 26th we'll be headed to one of our adopt-a-roads, Argentine Pass, for a combination of trail running, surveying, clean-ups, and possible Forest Service assistance. I'm working with our Land Use Coordinator @Outlander40 Aaron on sycing up activities with the CC Ranger District, more details to follow on what, if any, we'll be doing with them. But in any case this will be our big club event this year to get out and engage with our beloved adopted trail, Argentine Pass.
Activities will include at least 2 groups running trails- usually a lower Leavenworth Creek crew, and a high road crew, often times meeting around the Santiago mine then splitting again into an Argentine Pass crew & McClellan Pass crew. Sometimes there's snow and some of this doesn't happen, we'll be flexible and it'll be awesome. We'll be doing the standard campsite surveys, cleanups, also looking for evidence of new route creations, etc. And new this year will be a greeter program, more specifics to follow, but some type of hanging out at the bottom talking to the other users who came out to enjoy our trail this day, sharing maps, directions, tips for cool spots, info on the Club and TLCA, and trail etiquette. You can be involved in any or all parts of this.
There will also be camping- the night before on Friday, and/or the night after on Saturday, where all types of family-friendly shenanigins are welcome and encouraged. You could even do a night run, bring a mountain bike or motorcycle, do some hiking, but feel free to make a weekend of it.
This is of course open to anyone, and active members can use their participation towards next year's club dues, under our All Access program. And if you're new to this group and/or have never been up Argentine, this is a great one to be a part of, a great way to get to know some folks in your club a little better, or meet some folks in the club for the first time. We'll meet at 8:30, try to roll out by 9:00, and you can be back in town whenever you need to be back in town. More details to follow, please post up your questions & interest.
