SUMMARY:Blue Spires
DESCRIPTION:The Land \nSouth of the San Rafael Reef reside a conglomerate of magnificent landscapes cut by rivers and split by deep networks of canyons. From the Dirty Devil to the Henry Mountains to Factory Butte\, these lands feature a diverse array of wilderness-quality lands. Many sites stand alone\, rising from the desert floor accessed for their uniqueness and beauty by a variety of travelers and recreations. Blue Spire is one such feature. This natural stone spire\, highly erosive and susceptible to increasing impacts\, is due for protections designed to guide visitors to safely reach the feature on foot. This is our work. \n\nThe Work \nOur work will focus on travel management. We will install a fence along the boundary of a protected area to ensure local travelers and recreations are educated as to how to access the region’s magnificent features! We may also install signs indicating travel areas and protected boundary perimeters.. Additional tasks may include track raking and additional restoration strategies to minimize the impacts of our presence and work. Heavy lifting and the use of manual tools is involved. All tools will be provided\, including gloves. \nVolunteers Needed: (8)\nProject Lead: Talitha McGuire\nContact: talitha@suwa.org \n\nItinerary\nA comprehensive itinerary will be provided to registered volunteers. \n\nThu Nov 7 – Fri Nov 8\n\n\nProject Rating  \nLevel 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. \n\nCamping & Meals \nSpecific location of camping site(s) will be provided in the Welcome Letter sent to registered volunteers. \nSUWA provides select meals\, snacks and drinks during the project. Volunteers are responsible for all additional meals not specified in the Welcome Letter during their stay. \n\nVolunteer Responsibilities \nParticipants are responsible for their own food\, water and camping gear as well as transportation to and from the project site(s). Volunteers should plan to be away from camp all day each of the work days. A recommended pack list will be sent along with the project Welcome Letter  (4) weeks prior to the start date. \n\nRegistration & Acceptance Timeline \nA 2024 General Volunteer Application is required for this project. \n \n\nWhen we have received your form\, you will receive a confirmation e-mail within (5) working days of submission.\nIn order to ensure participation by the most diverse applicants\, we log all applications until (8) weeks prior to the project. At this point\, you will first receive a call from our stewardship team to further discuss the project.\nFollowing this call\, you will receive an e-mail confirming whether you have been placed on the “project roster” or a “waiting list.”\nIf you are selected for the project roster\, you will then complete a Volunteer Agreement.\nIndividuals on the Waitlist List will be contacted if space opens due to cancellation within (2) weeks of the project start date.\nAt (4) weeks before the project start date\, registered and confirmed participants will receive a Welcome Letter\, with a comprehensive itinerary\, including: driving instructions\, a Project Map for mobile devices (when applicable)\, a notification about carpools and/or caravans\, and any additional information pertinent to the project.\nWithin (2) weeks of the project you will receive a direct call from our stewardship coordinator to answer any additional questions you may have.\n\nIf you have any questions at any point throughout the process\, please do not hesitate to contact us here or by calling  (435) 259-9151. \nAPPLY NOW
