NE Peavine Trails Project

This project is funded by a $50,000 2021-22 RTP Grant for planning and a generous donation from the Nelson Estate to fund construction of the Golden Fleece Trail.

The scope of this project is to conduct trail planning activities including required NEPA studies using private contractors with the objective to obtain categorical exclusion approval from the US Forest Service for 12.7 miles of new sustainable non-motorized multi-use single track recreational trails on the northeast side of Peavine Mountain. Once completed, we will create the highest quality, sustainable trails possible within the approved alignments.
 
The scope of work and measurable goals includes:

• Work with Forest Service to develop scope of work for required NEPA studies

• Flagging of proposed trail corridors with Forest Service supervision

• Contracting private and volunteer contractors to complete NEPA studies

• Assisting Forest Service with any required public scoping

• Working with the Forest Service to obtaining categorical exclusion approval for the new trails 

• Build and construct 12.7 miles of trail, including a new trail from the top of the network, Golden Fleece.
