Southwest Conservation Corps



The Southwest Conservation Corps (SCC) employs and trains a diverse group of young women and men and completes conservation projects for the public benefit.  During our visit near Mt. Taylor in northwestern New Mexico, the crew was working on a portion of the Continental Divide Trail.  The members will be out in the field for 8 weeks.  Upon completion of their field work, members of the team will be visiting local schools to speak about the SCC and will include a segment on Leave No Trace in their presentations.  Spending time in the field with the team made us feel thankful for the hard work that is put into to building safe and durable trails for outdoor enthusiasts throughout the country.  Thanks for all you do!  See you on the trails.  Safe travels...
Kate and Tracy
