Project: Bay Area Ridge Trail Day - Craig Brittan Trail

Activities: Saturday November 3, in partnership with Mid Peninsula Regional Open Space District, we will lead trail work on the Craig Britton Trail in Purisima Creek Redwoods Preserve, a first for us! This work day will start at 8:30 a.m., but we recommend arriving at 8 a.m. as parking may be tight. We will hike 1.3 miles (without tools) to the beginning of the work site. Though the Trail Center provides tools and crew leaders, the event is part of the Bay Area Ridge Trail workday, sponsored by the Bay Area Ridge Trail Council and supported by REI.
