Trail Work Day – Brushing upper Dog River to Zig Zag

We are kicking off the trail work season this Sunday, June 8, 2025

We will be working on the first mile of Dog River, starting from the top (between the south Surveyor’s Ridge trailhead parking and the ZigZag trail). If, by some miracle, there is moisture by then, we’ll also do some tread repair.

Hard hats (bike helmets ok), long pants, work gloves and work boots are REQUIRED!

WHEN and WHERE:
Sunday, June 8, 2025, 10 am – 2 pm
Meet 10 am at Upper Dog River/Surveyor’s Ridge South Trailhead
Lunch will be provided by NYCity Subs in Hood River.

PROJECT:
Brushing, trimming and tread work, if possible

Bring loppers and hand saws if you have ’em!
Hard hats (bike helmets ok), long pants, work gloves and work boots are REQUIRED!

See you Sunday.
