This is a volunteer trail work crew that will prepare guides or individuals for backcountry travel and stewardship of our public lands.

The focus of the week will be maintaining and improving the trail system in the Flathead National Forest. You’ll pack in and work alongside Swan Mountain employees. Learn how to use the historical tools of the trade: pulaskis, axes, and cross-cut, one-man, and two-man saws. This trip will be physically demanding, with miles of hiking, trail work, and many hours in the saddle. Swan Mountain will provide all of the meals, accommodations, stock, and equipment. Weight limit is set at 225lbs.
