Clear the Way

Service-Learning at the Bureau of Land Management's Douglas Creek Canyon

Douglas Creek was formed by a flood. It was then turned into a railroad, and since then it has been abandoned. The present day goal is to turn that abandoned railroad bed into a recreational trail. Many of the hardships that we endured during our trip were due to environmental and physical conditions. Over the duration of our stay our main goal was to map the railroad bed with Global Positioning System (GPS) technology. Included in this web site are pictures of our trip.
