🛠 WHAT: Weekly trail work sessions on the Western Slope

💚 WHY: Because trails don’t build (or maintain) themselves—and when we dig together, we build more than just great singletrack. We build community.

📅 WHEN: Every Wednesday | 5–7:30 PM | Every Weds

📍 WHERE: Western Slope of Massanutten. Enter through the main gate (by the horses – the next entrance down the hill from the Western Slope parking lot) and follow the “trail work” signs straight up the road. Take a left on the second gravel road, go past the intersection “Running Cedar”, there will be a truck there. You can park your car where the new climbing trail crosses the lower gravel road.

🙋 HOW: Sign up, bring a friend, wear work clothes, and we’ll provide the tools and good vibes. No experience is needed. Wear long pants and closed-toed shoes; bring gloves if you have them.

These evenings are fun and productive and a chance to give back to the land that gives us so much.

Come get dirty with us. The trails will thank you.

The Great Stokesville Campout
Overview
The Great Stokesville Campout originated in 1997 as the Shenandoah Mountain Bike Festival and has always been and remains volunteer-powered.
