San Juan Mountains Association, in partnership with San Juan National Forest, is seeking experienced hikers, backpackers and horsemen to volunteer for its wilderness information and ghost rider programs.
The wilderness information program promotes public education about leave-no-trace land ethics that protect the integrity of wilderness areas, and skilled mounted volunteers are needed for the ghost rider program.
Volunteers will be assigned to wilderness trails in the San Juan Mountains, particularly from Needle Creek Trail to Chicago Basin.
Training, uniforms and name tags are provided, and horsemen will be responsible for supplying their own stock. Training is available online or volunteers can attend a session in May.
For more information, call 385-1310 or email kathe@sjma.org.
