HRJA Trail clearing/workday at E Farm property

October 28, 2023 @ 8:30 am - 5:00 pm

The “E” family is gracious enough to let us come down wheeling on their property multiple times a year. Please help us in the upkeep of this property that HRJA is lucky to have for our use.

A workday is a wheeling day just at a slower pace. Stopping for dead-fall cutting. Stopping for hiking out and marking new routes and obstacles. Cutting brush and briers back from the trail edges to prevent pinstripes.

Many hands make light work!

We mainly need to open some long neglected trails and cut a flagged trail in.

With the short day night wheeling after dinner is a distinct possibility.

If we are up to it with the cool weather we may head back to the property Sunday morning and work a ½ day.

HRJA Jeep only rules do not apply to a work day! Bring whatever you want to drive, SxS, Quad, Buggy, Bronco (How Dare You)?

Please be sure to bring gloves, and trail cutting tools if you have them. (Chainsaw, Pruners, String trimmer with brush blade)

Kids are welcome to come as well, If they can use a set of pruners bring them along.

We can use the help even if you don’t want to drive just meet at the below location and grab a passenger seat. The more people the easier the workday and more time to play.

Come Friday eve, Sat and maybe Sunday. Primitive camping sites available on the property camper parking in the lower field as well. Call/text or email me with questions or for details.

Nearby (20 Minutes) Ryerson Station State park offers primitive electric, cottages & full hookup camper sites and a new heated bathroom/shower house.

3 cottages, 4 full hookup sites, and 12 electric, and 14 primitive sites available as of today 9/6/23.
