Fellas, as some of you know I have been organizing and hosting Conservation Campouts across the West over the last several years. These projects have now stretched across 8 states and ranged from fence removal, pinyon-juniper thinning, sagebrush planting, migration corridor marking, and many more projects.

To kick off this year, I have set up a weekend project on March 26-27 with the Gila National Forest (huge thanks to @Kaitum for getting this ball rolling) in New Mexico where we will be working on a stream restoration project in two creek drainages with the eventual goal of helping restore the Gila Trout population in the area.

These projects are a Saturday-Sunday event and usually consist of working most of the day on Saturday before breaking apart for a cookout and a few cold ones. On Sunday we finish up what we were working on Saturday before heading home that afternoon.

I'm obviously biased but these are a blast to attend and I've made some incredible friends over the years from those that have volunteered. If you are in New Mexico or within driving distance, come give us a hand!

I've added the event to our website that has a more detailed description of the work with the location, times, and everything else. There is also a signup sheet for anyone that is interested.

If you can't make it to New Mexico, I should have another 4-5 planned for the rest of the spring/summer.

I saw your posts on the gram and thought, man, why didn't he promote this on HT. Then saw this thread today. Apparently I'm just blind.

First time me seeing it too besides Facebook. Not that I could have made it this time of the year anyways. Maybe later this year if something is closer
