Post expectations of work, time working

Generally 3 to 4 hours as our announcement will describe. If needed, feel free to leave early or come late. If you do, please get with a crew leader to ensure you get signed in and your hours counted!

How to dress, what to bring

Watch the weather and dress in layers, and always bring a waterproof jacket just in case. Consider wearing clothing you are comfortable getting dirty and dusty. BLTS strives to use the US Forest Service Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Standards on all trail days no matter the land manager jurisdiction. Minimum PPE includes: sturdy foot wear, long pants, long sleeve shirt, hardhat or bicycle helmet, work gloves and eye protection.

Bring plenty of water, snacks or a lunch, and anything medical you may need (think Epipen, etc.) and be sure to share that info with a crew leader.

Explanation of land manager partnerships

The BLTS operates under volunteer service agreements with the US Forest Service, City of Reno, and Washoe County Parks. This means all trail day rules, trail signage, trail builds, and alignments are approved by them prior to our ability to operate. We have over 15 years of successful partnerships with each land manager.
