West Hudson North Trail Crew

The Trail Conference trail crews are made up of volunteers dedicated to the construction and rehabilitation of foot trails in the Southern New York and Northern New Jersey area. Volunteers must become members of the Conference to participate in these projects. One time "guest" participation is allowed.

If you would like to volunteer for any of our work projects please call the leader for information including time and place of meeting. Bring water, lunch and work gloves. We supply tools.

There is work for every level of interest. We offer on-the-job training with experienced leaders.

The Peters Kill Loop Red Trail in Minnewaska State Park is our next big project. We will begin a relocation project that will be organized as a series of beginner’s work trips.
