Description: We will do this project from the top - down. The crew will be dropped off on the Mt. Evans Road and hike off-trail to Beartrack Lake. One team will proceed to an orange hawkweed infestation at the ~10,000 level. The other team will work on patches of Canada thistle along the trail. Near the wilderness boundary there is a larger infestation of Canada thistle to be treated hopefully by the full crew. We anticipate reaching the trailhead at Camp Rock about 5 pm and carpool back to Evergreen. This is a popular project and several members have already signed up. This will be last large weed project of the season. SIGN UP Now -- the alpine colors will be beautiful!

We still need:

• a few volunteers for the field work, and

• drivers to shuttle the crew to the drop-off point and back from Camp Rock to Evergreen..

Rendezvous: 7:00 am, Evergreen Safeway Parking Lot on Highway 74. Carpools will be arranged from there. Please bring a mask for the carpools.

If you are interested in attending, please contact alan@fomelc.org to register.  Your registration is necessary for us to efficiently organize the work plan. Thank you.
