Invasive Weed Project - Wigwam Creek Trail, Lost Creek Wilderness

There are a series of small infestations along the Creek for about the first mile. It includes our first look at Yellow Toadflax this season. Canada thistle is the most common noxious weed in the area. Although we have only been treating this trail for a few years, we are making excellent progress and that is all the more reason to be persistent!

Why volunteer on this project?

  • Wigwam Creek is what we look for - lovely stream in a picturesque canyon and the opportunity for solitude (mid-week).

  • It's easy - all the work begins very near the trailhead and we follow the stream grade.

  • An opportunity to make a real difference in a short time.

Rendezvous at the “Coffee Bean N’ Bakery” in Pine Junction (16 Mt Evans Blvd) 7:30 am.  We can carpool from the adjacent RTD Park & Ride.

If you are interested in attending, please contact alan@fomelc.org to register.  Your registration is necessary for us to efficiently organize the work plan. Thank you.
