What we’re about
This group is for North Country Trail hikers in North Dakota! The Central Flyway, Sheyenne River Valley, and Dakota Prairie Chapters of the North Country Trail Association use this Meetup to schedule events and trail work projects on the North Country National Scenic Trail in North Dakota.
All of the group's events are open to anyone - you do not need to be a NCTA member* to participate in our events but we invite you to join us! Membership in the NCTA supports trail-wide initiatives but also helps the local Chapters have the funding they need to build and maintain the NCT locally.
*We do encourage you to consider joining the NCTA and either of the three Chapters in North Dakota. Learn more at https://northcountrytrail.org/trail/north-dakota/ and join at https://northcountrytrail.org/giving-membership/membership/.

See all- Volunteer Work Day62nd Street SE & NCT, Walcott, ND
The Dakota Prairie Chapter is asking for volunteers to help clear brush from the North Country Trail on May 10th starting at 1:30 pm. We will be meeting where the North Country Trail crosses 62nd Street SE south of Walcott (coordinates 46.514304, -96.911520; Google maps link). Starting at 1:30 pm we will walk to the north about 1 mile (2 miles total) stopping at different points to clear brush off the trail. We should be done before 4 pm. Clearing brush is considered easy work using hand tools like pruners, loppers, and small saws. All tools will be provided but as volunteers you will need to bring gloves, some sort of eye protection, water, snacks, and wear sturdy shoes. Children can come but will only be allowed to remove cut brush.
Contact Jack Norland (jacknorlanddpc@gmail.com) if interested or if you have any questions.
Hope to see you there.
