What is the difficulty of a weeklong trip?
A. Each day’s trail work can be strenuous and difficult if you are not accustomed to this kind of work. We encourage you to join us on a regular one-day work party to see if you would enjoy this type of work for a full week. We also encourage all volunteers to work at their own speed, pace themselves, take breaks, and change tasks frequently. The crew leaders are there to help you understand what is required and how it can be accomplished in the easiest way. If you are suffering any type of health problem(s) that might be aggravated by physical exertion and could not be controlled at a safe level while in the field, a weeklong vacation is not appropriate for you.
