Connecticut River Waterway Work Trip
The Vermont River Conservancy, in collaboration with the Northern Forest Canoe Trail, is sponsoring a waterway work trip for the weekend of August 29th-30th. The purpose of the trip is to develop a new campsite on the Connecticut River just north of Lancaster, New Hampshire.
The construction of the campsite is a critical step towards the completion of a paddler’s trail which will connect campsites developed by the Northern Forest Canoe Trail and the Vermont River Conservancy in the northern reaches of the river to a series of primitive campsites developed by the Upper Valley Land Trust to the south.
Volunteers are needed to help construct a picnic table, a privy, and a timber staircase. There will be plenty of time allotted for exploring this beautiful section of the river. Paddlers should bring their own camping and paddling gear (optional). A limited amount of gear is available for loan. Food will be provided (donations will be accepted to cover food and project expenses).
For more information, or to register for the work trip, please contact Noah Pollock at: [email protected] or (802) 540-0319.
