SUMMARY:Kawuneeche Revegetation Volunteer Event
DESCRIPTION:Get ready to roll up your sleeves and restore Rocky Mountain National Park’s native plant communities on the park’s west side!\nCome work alongside RMNP vegetation staff to re-plant an area near the newly reconstructed west side packing barn\, built to replace the structure destroyed in the 2020 East Troublesome Fire. The area we will plant was disturbed during construction and needs our help to return to native vegetation. We will be spreading mulch and planting a variety of native forbs and grasses\, including Achillea millefolium (yarrow)\, Erigeron flagellaris (Spreading fleabane)\, and Elymus elymoides (Bottlebrush squirreltail bunchgrass). \nWhat to Expect:\nThis project will involve hauling mulch and planting seedlings within a montane site (8000ft elevation) in exposed conditions. Planting will involve kneeling\, stooping\, bending over\, and use of small hand tools. Light to moderate lifting of plant trays may be required. Mulch work will involve using shovels\, pitchforks\, and wheelbarrows to move temporarily staged wood chips\, and mulch around new plantings. \nWater coolers will be available onsite for refills. Restrooms will be available a short walk (less than ¼ mile) from the worksite. Be prepared for variable weather conditions (sun\, wind\, heat\, cold\, light rain). \nMinimum age: 18 years \nDates (weather permitting): August 31 or September 1\, 2026 \nTime: 10:00am – 3:30pm \nMeeting location: Please meet in the outdoor plaza in front of the Kawuneeche Visitor Center. From there\, we will carpool for a short 5-minute drive to the restoration site. \nWork site: RMNP West Packing Barn \nNearest bathroom: RMNP West Packing Barn \nWhat’s provided: Work gloves\, sunscreen\, kneeling pads\, drinking water\, tools. \nWhat to bring: Layers\, rain gear\, sun protection (sunscreen\, hat\, sunglasses)\, gloves if you prefer your own\, day pack\, lunch and snacks\, and a water bottle. \nReady to sign up?\nClick your preferred date below to start the registration process.
