Spring Opening (a.k.a. Snow Shoveling)

Type: Short-term volunteer groups
Dates: late May (depending on weather)
Status: Now recruiting groups

Quick summary: Volunteers are a major asset in helping us to open the high elevation facilities at Sunrise in the spring. While snow plows and other heavy equipment do most of the work, the final job of shoveling out walkways, fire hydrants, WPA-era rock walls, and other delicate features of the landscape can most effectively by done by hand. It makes a great spring work party, usually before the general public has access to the area. The exact dates are difficult to predict well in advance, since they are dependent on winter snowfall and spring meltout.
