Invasive Weed Removal – Volunteer Day
August 19 @ 8:00 am - 12:00 pm
Crystal Butte is a scenic and frequently visited recreation area located on the edge of Jackson in the Bridger-Teton National Forest. Volunteer work will focus on the “Crystal Lite” trail, a half-mile route with less than 500 feet of elevation gain. Invasive species at this site include musk thistle, bull thistle, houndstongue, spotted knapweed, and dalmatian toadflax. As a trail popular with hikers, dog walkers, and bikers, managing invasive plant spread here is essential
Invasive weeds can crowd out native plants and deprive wildlife of traditional food sources. Play a role in helping control the spread of invasives and spend a fun morning outside in the mountains by volunteering for this project. No experience is needed and all ages are welcome. This is a half-day project.
