BHA, Eagle County Open Space, and Eagle Valley Land Trust are hosting an opportunity for volunteers to come out after work, get their hands dirty, and contribute to big game habitat conservation in Eagle, CO. (Please note the event location says it is in Edwards but this is an error within Google Maps, the event is in Eagle.)
This will be the first of a three-part weeknight fence pull series at the Brush Creek Ranch. So, if you can't make this one you'll have one more opportunity to join us on August 1.
Participants will assist in removing fencing in critical elk calving habitat on the Brush Creek Valley Ranch Open Space in Eagle, CO. This area abuts up against BLM land and is a favorite of the elk not only during calving season but in the Winter months as well.
We will spend the evening removing, rolling, and staging barbed wire fencing that Open Space will then pick up and transport to be recycled. Participants will meet at the Brush Creek Valley Ranch and Open Space trailhead parking lot at 5:30 pm, we will then carpool to the site. Additionally, snacks and beverages will be provided.
What to bring: Leather gloves, safety glasses (sunglasses are fine), and fence tools (pliers, post puller, etc) if you have them we will also be providing tools. A water bottle (there will be a water fill station on site), sunscreen, and proper clothing for working outside in the fall and removing fence (jeans/carhartts, boots, long-sleeve durable shirt).
