Volunteer Corridor Monitoring

Help protect the Green Mountains and the “footpath in the wilderness” by becoming a volunteer Corridor Monitor. We will train you on the components of land stewardship and boundary maintenance and support you as you take on this independent volunteer task of adopting a parcel of conserved lands. Contact Land Stewardship Coordinator, Rowan Kamman, to learn more about the program ([email protected]).

Open Corridor Monitoring Sections

Shrewsbury, VT south of Killington: 8.9 miles of boundary hosting 3.9 miles of the LT/AT. This section contains the Governor Clement Shelter and features many forest types including dense high-elevation spruce-fir. Upper Cold River Rd is the southern boundary of the section. The northern part of this section is very remote and requires long access either from the road, Killington ski area, or via the full Shrewsbury Peak Trail.

Jay, VT north of Jay Peak: 4.6 miles of remote boundary, hosts 0.6 miles of the LT and the Laura Woodward shelter. Remote, shortest access via Jay Peak ski trails.

Jay, VT around Route 105: 6.8 miles of boundary, roughly parallels 2.8 miles of the LT on either side of Route 105. The southern end of this section is remote.
