GOATS Trail Work Weekend & Campout

***BREAKING NEWS - LOCATION CHANGE***

The Middle Fork Ranger District has requested GOATS to focus on trails in another location with a backlog of trail work to complete.  GOATS is working diligently to resolve the logistics with all of our partners before the weekend.  We have worked with the Army Corps of Engineers to rent the majority of Ivan Oakes Campground on the shore of Lookout Point Reservoir.  This is another beautiful venue to base the campout.  We will need to share campsites with your fellow volunteers, but if you would like more privacy, there will be additional sites to rent.  We will be working on the Tire Mountain, Cloverpatch & Winberry Trails.  Note, there is more poison oak on these trails and in the campground.  Please be prepared to wash yourselves and changes of clothing.

Join the Greater Oakridge Area Trail Stewarts (GOATS) in their flagship event June 1, 2, 3! A fun filled catered trailwork campout on the Middle Fork Trail. We are proud to announce new partnerships with REI & Tacovore and our continued support from Oakshire Brewing! GOATS hopes to make this a great weekend full of great food, camping, trail work and ride! Friday Dinner will be a giant paella from the one and only Chef Chuck and Tacovore will be providing a Taco Bar Saturday night!

Directions: Ivan Oakes Campground is on West Boundary Road (AKA Northshore or FS-5821) on the Lookout Point Reservoir.  Best route (even from Oakridge/Westfir) is Highway 58, turing at the Lowell Covered Bridge onto Pioneer Street coming into Lowell and turn right at the stop sign on to West Boundary Road and follow it up past the Lookout Point Dam.  Follow the windy paved road 7.7 miles (the last 1 mile is a good gravel road) and the Campground is on your right.  Google Map
