January Photos!

The annual Wolf Pit Day was a big success.  Lots of work done to reduce erosion on one of the busiest trails in Linville Gorge.  Best of all, this is a great community event with a wide range of National Forest stakeholders.

 

Volunteers worked alongside Wild South’s Public Land Corps trail crew to continue rerouting the MST in Chimney Gap.   We’ll have a few more days like this in early February as well.  This project is making a huge difference!
