The Catskills and Long Path Trail Crew is working on the new section of Long Path that begins near Phoenicia, continues over Romer Mountain, Mount Pleasant and Cross Mountain and then will connect with the Burroughs Range Trail.
As part of that work, the Crew will be spending a week, camping, on the mountains to work on the more remote sections of the new Long Path.
During this trip the crew will be working on the section that crosses Cross Mountain between Wittenburg and Mount Pleasant.
Additional volunteers are needed to support the Trail Crew on Cross Mountain throughout the week by hiking up with supplies for the camp, bringing up tools, and carrying out material that is no longer needed. Volunteer for a day or more.
