Spring has sprung in the higher elevation of Panthertown Valley. Yesterday we worked on cleaning up the Granny Burrell Trail for all the creekside summer fun ahead! As always, respect plants and wildlife, Leave No Trace when visiting public lands 💚

🌎 Every week is EARTH week in Panthertown Valley! As the seasons flow in this high elevation bog valley, there’s always something new and beautiful to see!! Be a land steward... dispose of waste properly and leave what you find 🌎

🌳Weekend with WCU rainforest mud puddle relief team!! Gettin dirty to keep it clean on Macs Gap Trail 💚 Nothing like rinsing off to capture a plastic bottle eddied out below Granny Burrell ♻️

It is through shared stewardship we care of our public lands! Join us weekly in Panthertown for trail maintenance days and special projects like this culvert rock armor last week. We also finished pruning Rattlesnake Knob Trail, both on the less traveled North end.

Can we get a thumbs up!!

Smiles for trails!! Thank you Panthertown Stew Crew!!

Spotted, a pre Panthertown Scavenger Hunt survey!

Had a successful pruning day out on the Granny Burrell Falls Trail, a valley classic flowing alongside Panthertown Creek. Bit by bit we have been opening up a wet and overgrown section of the trail corridor for a future cribbing project. Creating a more sustainable trail will benefit us and the ecosystem! Thanks guys!!

Met a mountaineer at our weekday workday! It was a perfectly cold and icy day to talk big mountains and do some pruning on Greenland Creek and Macs Gap trails. One of the best parts about being outside during covid is meeting new folks safely. Check out Panthertown.org for more opportunities!

💗Volunteer love! 💗Feeling thankful for the wonderful people taking their time each week to join in helping Panthertown get some trail TLC. We took in a spectacular lunch at Jawbone Falls after continuing the ongoing tread and corridor work on Devils Elbow!

Happy “National Take A Hike Day” here in Panthertown Valley. We invite you to help us protect this special place. Become a member, donor, or volunteer, today. Your support is appreciated! #nationaltakeahikeday #recreateresponsibly #leavenotrace #panthertownvalley panthertown.org/join
