Mill Creek Canyon WSA Service Project

May 5, 2018 - May 6, 2018

Join SUWA’s Field Volunteers up Mill Creek drainage in the Mill Creek Canyon Wilderness Study Area near Moab, Utah.

We will be working to protect the WSA boundary and interior from nearby high-impact travel. Recent motorized incursions into the WSA will be addressed through reclamation and rehabilitation strategies.

This Project is rated: 

Level 2 – Our most common trip incorporates mid- to heavy-lifting, work in remote landscapes at varying elevations, an increased diversity of tool use, and an emphasis on physical fitness and hiking competency.

Workday Scope & Project Details

The workday is 7:30am to 4:30pm on Saturday and Sunday (including orientation, and travel to and from site. Actual work hours are 6-7 hours per day). Dinner on Saturday and breakfast on Sunday is provided. Lunches are Bring Your Own.

Work tasks will vary by need, and are slated to include:

  • bolstering and installing WSA boundary fence line;
  • motorized track rehabilitation;
  • vertical mulching to define end of motorized travel area;
  • campsite removal and trash clean-up;
