The Alliance is partnering with Overmountain Cycles for some work on Holly Springs (aka Sinkhole), January 30th, 2022 at 9am. Join us for some maintenance work on this classic Pisgah trail. Meeting location will be near the lower trailhead at the intersection of FSR 982 Mortimer Piedmont Rd. and the gated FSR 986 Piedmont Springs Rd. (Coordinates: 35.920583, -81.792417). If you are unfamiliar with this part of the forest, it is a remote area so plan accordingly to be on time or early. There is no reliable cell service. Parking is VERY limited, so carpool with others that you know are coming.
At 9am, we will divide into groups and then hiking in a good ways before beginning work back down the trail. If this gets postponed due to weather, the call will be made by 7am the day of on the Alliance Facebook site. Bring sturdy footwear, work gloves, and water. Tools will be provided. Also, please fill out the Trail Volunteer RSVP form so we can plan ahead.
Come help us give the trails at Lake James State Park some love!
All Work Parties will begin at 9am. Pack water and snacks to take with you on the trail. Sturdy footwear and work gloves recommended. Tools will be provided, and work will end around noon. Group ride will follow at 1pm, so don’t forget your bike!
Dates and work detail subject to change; this post may be revised. Any day-of cancellations will be posted on Facebook site, so check there if weather looks questionable.
