Join Dirt Skrrts at a trail work day with Friends of DuPont!

We meet at the High Falls Access Area (Visitor Center) and then carpool to the Airstrip Trail. No prior trail work experience is needed. Please bring work gloves and water, plus you’ll need to wear long pants, appropriate working clothes and hiking boots. If you have them, bring safety glasses (what you use for mountain biking will work) otherwise, safety glasses will be provided. We will work on the trails from 8:45am to 12pm. Plan on arriving 15 minutes early.

You are required to sign a FODF / NC Forest Service Waiver the day of the event and must be able to hike 2 miles with ~150 feet of ascent and ~150 feet of descent while carrying a 5lb trail tool. You must also be able to lift at least 1 lbs and either loosen and move large quantities of dirt OR cut and move small trees (3" diameter).

Post trail work social at Cedar Mountain Canteen [ 10771 Greenville Hwy., Cedar Mountain, NC 28718 ] and please provide your own pint glass, plate, bowl, and utensils. Or bring your bike and ride the trails when you’re done!
