Volunteer Event - Riverside - Scotch Broom Removal

Scotch Broom is a Class B Noxious Weed that crowds out native species and can be harmful to habitat. Within the Little Spokane Natural Area, there is a large and growing area of this invasive plant. We will be targeting smaller patches of this plant along the edges of the affected area.

Volunteer Event - WTA - Riverside - Trail Construction & Maintenance

Overview:
Trautman Conservation Area is located in the heart of Riverside State Park. It is an old ranch that is crisscrossed by cow paths, user-built trails and ranch roads. We will be working to help formalize the trail system and address some trail issues that make the present trails unsustainable. Help to make this another great hiking area in Riverside State Park!

About the Area:
This 275.8-acre conservation area in the heart of Riverside State Park was acquired in 2015 through Spokane County's Conservation Futures Program. This property was acquired with assistance from the Inland Northwest Land Conservancy and the Trautman Family. The property is managed by Riverside State Park through a management agreement between Spokane County and the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission. It encompasses meadows and open woodland over rolling terrain.

What to Expect:
We'll have fun, work hard and make a difference! No experience is necessary.

Project Description:
The ongoing goal at Trautman is to formalize the trail system on the property. This will mean improving some trails while decommissioning and abandoning others. We will be working with State Parks staff to build some new trail segments as well as improve some existing trails on the property. The Meadow Trail is a short connector trail near the Trautman Barns. If we wrap up early, we will also provide some maintenance on nearby trails.
