SUMMARY:2025 Catclaw Revenge - Passage 17a Maintenance
DESCRIPTION:The Alamo Canyon Passage is classic Sonoran desert – rugged\, remote and beautiful. Though it burned in the Telegraph fire of 2021\, this is still a striking landscape with amazing rock and spectacular views – and now it needs our help more than ever as it recovers from the damage done by the flames. Join the passage stewards in their mission to maintain this as one of the premier passages of the Arizona National Scenic Trail. This is a multi-day backcountry event – perfect for those looking for a challenge. It is also your chance to get revenge on those evil clumps of catclaw that have so often bitten you as you walked by!\n  \n  \nOur goals for the weekend: \nFriday:  \n\nHike approximately 9 miles south of the Picketpost Trailhead to our traditional camping spot in Coronation Wash. We’ll have support from a 4wd club to assist with transporting gear and water into this remote camp (high clearance\, modified 4wd needed to access).\nIf there’s energy left\, we’ll brush out around the camp or clear brush along the way.\n\n  \nSaturday:  \n\nGrub out mesquite and catclaw and all other spiny plants which have grown over the trail. (You know you want revenge!)\nCheck on water sources\nClear any problems with trail tread or identify areas for further work in future trips.\nUp to 3 miles of hiking (6 mile round trip) to reach the southern boundary of the passage\n\n  \nSunday: \n\nFinish up our work and head back to the trailhead for home (there’s an option to stay until Monday if you just can’t get enough!)\n\nMonday:  \n\nThe 4wd Club will come and pick up our gear. We’ll hike the rest of the crew back to Picketpost TH.\n\n  \nVolunteers will be rewarded with a hearty dinner cooked by the event host on Friday and Saturday nights and a cooler of icy beverages (or steaming hot ones as needed) available for your enjoyment. \n  \nThis is a backcountry event – we will be camping in a remote area and participants will need to bring their own camping gear. We will provide tools\, safety gear\, instructions and food as described above. \n  \nAdditional details will be shared with participants in advance of the event. \n  \nFor more information on the event\, you can email your host: Wendy Lotze at wrae.lo@gmail.com \n  \nCommunity Health Note: The ATA asks that volunteers refrain from participation in any AZT activity if they have symptoms of or believe they may have been recently exposed to any contagious illness including colds and the flu. Please monitor your health regularly and inform your event leader if you believe you may be at risk.

SUMMARY:History Walk to Millville & Petroglyph Trail
DESCRIPTION:Walk this trail with FSPR docent Richard Bauer to visit Millville\, location of two historic silver mills\, and an adjacent Indian petroglyph site.

This preserve is home to a lush riparian habitat that contains many tree species unique to the desert including cottonwoods\, sycamore\, walnuts\, and more! We’ll look for the many bird species that call this place home. \nThis hike is approximately 1 mile in length\, with no elevation gain\, but does require two water crossings and some uneven terrain. Please bring binoculars if you have them. Due to the very limited parking at the preserve\, we will meet at the parking lot of the gas station off New River Road and carpool to the preserve.
