Join us for a workday on upper Black! We will be gathering and staging rock with the 2 walk behind canycom rock haulers on a couple of sections of upper black with the goal of coming back on future days to rock armor places where the armoring has failed, or seeps are occuring. We will also be doing some drain work in betweeen running loads of rock with the machine. We will be parking at the intersection of middle and upper black at maxwell and hiking up black with tools.

We will meet at the Pisgah Ranger station at 8:30 am and carpool up Clawhammer and Maxwell. We will plan to have everyone back to the ranger station around 3 pm. If we have enough bike rack space, we will be able to offer a shuttle at the end of the day! We will plan to have designated drivers going up, then people can ride down middle and lower black at the end of the day. If you need leave early, please let us know and we will probably have you bring a bike and ride out. If you have a high clearance/4wd vehicle and would be willing to help drive, we'd appreciate it and please let us know! 

What to Bring: Required: Long pants, boots that cover your ankles, gloves, water, snacks, lunch, hardhat (bike helmets DO NOT count, but climbing helmets do), safety glasses. Bring a bike and bike helmet if you plan to leave early/ are wanting a shuttle at the end of the day and are not driving.

Note: Hardhats, gloves and safety glasses can be provided if needed.

All tools will be provided
