SUMMARY:Volunteer Trail Work Day - Lower Taylor Creek Trail - April 4
DESCRIPTION:Date: Saturday\, April 4\, 2026\nTime: 9 AM to 4 PM\nLocation: Taylor Creek Trail\, Taylor Creek-West Fork Trailhead AKA Loop trailhead\nFlavor: Primarily brush-clearing \nJoin SOTA for another volunteer trail work day in the Briggs Valley west of Grants Pass\, where we’ll continue our work clearing brush and downed trees from the Lower Taylor Creek trail. \nLower Taylor Creek is the backbone trail of the Briggs Valley and is a main focus of SOTA’s work in 2026. The 7-mile trail connects to many other trails\, trailheads\, swimming holes\, and waterfalls. It has needed maintenance for years since the 2018 Klondike and Taylor Creek fires\, but SOTA and others have been chipping away at keeping the trail open. This year\, our goal is to get the entire trail completely reopened and passable! \nThe trail needs brushing work\, downed tree and strom debris removal\, and some selective tread restoration. Volunteers can expect to work primarily with loppers\, hand saws\, and rakes. Experienced volunteers and USFS-certified sawyers may be able to use power tools; please let us know if this is something you are interested in when you RSVP. \nWe will plan to work on the trail for about 6 hours and then reconvene at the trailhead for a late lunch/early dinner meal and drinks afterwards\, to celebrate the work we accomplished! \nEmail larry@southernoregontrails.org to RSVP or ask questions. In your email\, let us know if you are familiar with the area\, what tools you plan to bring (if any) and whether you are interested in using power tools. \n RSVP\n  \nLocation\nThere are multiple trailheads along Taylor Creek. We will meet at the “Taylor Creek-West Fork Trailhead” AKA Loop trailhead. Details below. \nThere is little to no cell service in the Briggs Valley\, so plan your maps and route ahead of time to ensure you know where to meet us. \nCoordinates: 42.499854\, -123.647719 \nDirections from Merlin: \n\n1. Drive west on Galice Rd for 8.5 miles\n2. After passing Morrison’s Lodge\, turn left on Taylor Creek Road/NF-25 (Sign for Briggs Valley 13mi)\n3. Drive 7.4 miles\, stay right (on the main road) at all road splits\, and the trailhead will be on your left.\n\nFor the entire 7.4 miles\, the creek should be below and to your left\, and for the last few miles you’ll be right alongside the creek. If you start twisting and turning up an uphill road away from the creek\, you’ve gone too far or accidentally took a left when you should have stayed right. The trailhead is not hard to find and the SOTA crew will be out there around 8:30\, so you’ll see us and know you’re in the right place. \n  \nWhat to bring\nSOTA has tools and hard hats to lend. Check the forecast and dress accordingly\, with breathable and removable layers. Regardless of the temperature\, we recommend long pants\, long sleeves\, and tall socks to protect your skin from weather\, poison oak\, scratchy brush\, bugs\, etc. Please bring: \n\n– Weather-appropriate clothing and sturdy shoes\n– Gloves!\n– Eye protection (sunglasses\, safety glasses)\n– Water and snacks for yourself during work hours\n– Optional: loppers\, clippers or small hand saws if you have your own you want to bring\n\n  \nClick below to let us know you’re coming! \n RSVP\n

SUMMARY:Volunteer Trail Work Day - Lower Taylor Creek Trail - January 31
DESCRIPTION:Date: Saturday\, January 31\, 2026\nTime: 9 AM -2 PMM\nLocation: Taylor Creek Trail\, First trailhead (milepost 3)\nFlavor: Primarily brush-clearing \nJoin SOTA for a volunteer trail work day in the Briggs Valley west of Grants Pass\, where we’ll plan to work on clearing brush and storm debris from the Lower Taylor Creek trail. \nLower Taylor Creek is the backbone trail of the Briggs Valley and will be a main focus of SOTA’s work in 2026. The 7-mile trail connects to many other trails\, trailheads\, swimming holes\, and waterfalls. It has needed maintenance for years since the 2018 Klondike and Taylor Creek fires\, but SOTA and others have been chipping away at keeping the trail open. This year\, our goal is to get the entire trail completely reopened and passable! However\, this is one volunteer day and we’ll tackle just the first section of it. 😉 \nThe trail needs brushing work\, downed tree and strom debris removal\, and some potential tread restoration. Volunteers can expect to work primarily with loppers\, hand saws\, and rakes. \nWe will plan to work on the trail for 4-5 hours and then reconvene at the trailhead for a warm meal and drinks afterwards\, to celebrate the work we accomplished! \nEmail larry@southernoregontrails.org to RSVP or ask questions. In your email\, let us know if you are familiar with the area and what tools you plan to bring\, if any. \n RSVP\n  \nLocation\nThere are multiple trailheads along Taylor Creek. We will meet at the very first trailhead\, which is 3 miles down Taylor Creek Rd from Merlin. \nThere is little to no cell service in the Briggs Valley\, so plan your maps and route ahead of time to ensure you know where to meet us. \nCoordinates: 42.525089\, -123.596792 \nDirections from Merlin: \n\n1. Drive west on Galice Rd for 8.5 miles\n2. After passing Morrison’s Lodge\, turn left on Taylor Creek Road/NF-25 (Sign for Briggs Valley 13mi)\n3. Drive 3 miles and then the small trailhead will be on your left\n\nOnce the small trailhead is full\, we will direct folks to park a little farther down the road at the English Cabin Meadow. \n  \nWhat to bring\nSOTA has tools and hardhats to lend. Weather can be variable this time of year\, so check the forecast and dress accordingly\, with breathable and removable layers. Regardless of the temperature\, we recommend long pants\, long sleeves\, and tall socks to protect your skin from weather\, poison oak\, scratchy brush\, bugs\, etc. Please bring: \n\n– Weather-appropriate clothing\n– Gloves and eye protection\n– Water and snacks for yourself during the work hours\n– Optional – loppers\, clippers or small hand saws if you have your own you want to bring\n\n  \nClick below to let us know you’re coming! \n RSVP\n
