We will perform primarily tread and drainage work on the Redwood Nature Trail in San Mateo County’s Huddart Park in Woodside. We will formalize a use trail that connects to the loop from the parking lot. We may also do some minor brushing, improve a culvert crossing, and re-install interpretive signs. As usual we will meet at 8:30 and work until 2:30 or 3.
Staging/Directions:
We will meet in the Oak Picnic area’s parking lot, in the southeast corner of Huddart Park. Restrooms are available there.
The main entrance to Huddart is at:
1100 Kings Mountain Rd.
Woodside, CA 94062
When you approach the entrance kiosk, let the attendant know you are there for the trail project to avoid paying the entrance fee. Shortly after passing the kiosk, watch for directional signs to the Oak Picnic Area, which will be right turn. Continue 0.7mi on the park road past the Sequoia and Redwood areas and then turn right into the large Oak Picnic Area parking lot.
