SUMMARY:Appalachian National Scenic Trail\, Maine - Volunteer Vacations 2022
DESCRIPTION:Help protect the Appalachian Trail (A.T.) and enjoy the rugged beauty of Maine’s 100-Mile Wilderness! On this project\, we will monitor and maintain the boundaries of the land protected for the Trail. This public land is the backbone of the largest natural corridor that remains east of the Mississippi River\, creating a haven and migration path for humans and animals alike. Maintaining the boundaries of this land helps to protect it from encroachments such as motorized vehicles and timber theft. Using a GPS\, map\, and compass\, the crew will follow the surveyed boundaries of the trail corridor. We will clear brush with loppers\, paint trees\, replace US Boundary signs\, and record the condition of metal survey markers\, called “monuments.” Each day\, we will duck into the woods just off the A.T.\, find the boundary\, and leap-frog each other as we move along. At the end of the day\, we’ll hike back on the A.T. and be amazed at how much ground we covered! Teams will maintain up to 1 mile of boundary line and hike 2 or more miles per day. Maine is especially wonderful this time of year. After experiencing the rugged beauty of the trail\, volunteers will enjoy the full-service Lily Bay State Park campground on the shores of Moosehead Lake. We hope you join us on this challenging and rewarding project. Volunteers like you are the heart and soul of the Appalachian Trail! \nAHS acknowledges with gratitude that this project takes place on the traditional lands of the Wabanaki (Dawnland Confederacy)\, Nanrantsouak and Abenaki / Abénaquis peoples past and present. We honor the land itself\, the Indigenous communities who have stewarded this land for generations\, and those who continue to steward these lands today. AHS invites all volunteers to join us in our commitment to support and amplify the work of Indigenous communities as they work to dismantle the systems of oppression that these communities continue to face today.
