Solitude Monitoring Training - Highline Trail, Gros Ventre Wilderness
This stunning hike doubles as a training for solitude monitoring, the WWA citizen science project. Both the Caribou-Targhee and Bridger-Teton National Forests need help gathering this data within the Wilderness areas they manage. By joining this outing, you'll be equipped with the skills to contribute to one of the easiest and most vital citizen science opportunities around, all while hiking in our beautiful backcountry
Please anticipate a hike that lasts all day covering ~8 miles with nearly 1,500-feet of elevation change. We'll begin at the Granite Creek Trailhead parking area and immediately climb to the Wilderness boundary. As we hike, you'll be treated to stunning views and wildflowers, all while learning about solitude monitoring from USFS wilderness rangers and WWA staff.
Registration for this event is required, as there are limited spots available. To RSVP or request more information, please email Carlie (carlie@wildwyo.org).
