Series of Boundary Worktrips

Thursday, Jan 11, 2024 by Christina McIntyre

We've posted a series of Boundary Monitoring worktrips for the Appalachian Trail. We'd love to have new people participate. These are full days since there will be a fair amount of hiking to get to the site, moving through brush off trail to find boundary "monuments" (low metal posts with survey info) and remark the witness trees (3 trees that help to triangulate the location of the monuments.

Please read the complete trip description before registering. 

We'd love to have people join for more than one trip as that will reduce the training time as we progress.
