Environmental Services - Fresno, CA, United States
Wilderness Corps is for people who enjoy Backpacking, Hiking, Wilderness Stewardship, and Trail Maintenance in the beautiful and rugged Sierra Mountains while socializing with other like-minded individuals. Do you want to stay in shape and give back at the same time? During the Summer months, we offer a variety of activities for people of all ages. We provide front country trips between 5 to 10 miles per day in length to moderate to advanced trips 10 + miles in length per day. These trips are geared towards 1) Keeping public trail access open by clearing downed trees and 2) providing wilderness stewardship in the Wilderness Area's we support, and 3) assist forest visitors and educate them about Leave No Trace and Outdoor Ethics. In the winter months, we have our Winter Program which is geared towards supporting the Over Snow Vehicle Department, of the High Sierra Ranger District. Our Winter Program gives volunteers an opportunity to come out and volunteer to do a variety of OSV Winter activities, like Snowmobile Trail Patrol, SnoPark LNT Public Education, and a lot of Skills training and subsequent certifications. Most events will be scheduled on weekends. During the summer season, there will be a lot of extended trips into the backcountry. 2018/2019 will be much like years past where Wilderness Corps clears the public trails in the Dinkey Lakes Wilderness, and now through collaboration, we will be assisting with trail clearing in the Kaiser Wilderness. For those interested in multi-day activities, there will be a lot of backpacking/camping trips scheduled during the spring, summer, and autumn seasons. For the 2018/2019 Winter, we now have a Winter Program which focuses on Over Snow Vehicle use and the recreation management activities associated with this. Volunteers are encouraged to apply for this program.Wilderness Corps is a registered non-profit agency and based out of Fresno, CA.
