Mount Herman Cleanup

PREREGISTRATION IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE. Please email us to let us know if you are coming and additional information with directions and meeting time & locations will be included in the confirmation email.

Join us for the cleanup of MULTIPLE on Mt Herman Rd that need our attention before weather prevents it. We will be focusing on the various off shoots up at the top of the road. The road does NOT require 4WD, but is dirt so a higher clearance front wheel drive vehicle is prefered. More information below.

CARAVAN MEETING TIME & LOCATIONS:

8:30am - Departs from the following locations:

 

Monument: Dirty Woman Park (17575 Mitchell Ave) in the main parking lot by the playing field.

 

Woodland Park: Woodland Park Middle School (600 E Kelley’s Rd) in the dirt parking lot PAST the bus loop on the east side of the school on Rampart Range Rd above the baseball field.

 

BASE CAMP – near Mile Marker 3 on CR 320 (Mt Herman Rd).  The roads do NOT require 4WD, but are dirt and can be washboardy, so give yourself plenty of time to go an appropriate speed. We suggest caravaning (meeting locations listed above) and following others up that are familiar with the area. 

 

FROM WOODLAND PARK:  CR 320 (Mt Herman Rd) takes off from CR 300 (Rampart Range Rd) between MM 25 & MM 26. 

 

FROM MONUMENT:  Take Mt Herman Rd to the top.  If you reach the stop sign at CR 300 (Rampart Range Rd) you have gone too far.  A higher clearance vehicle is suggested for this part of the road.  It has a couple of large ruts, but you can go off to the side and pass around them.  It was done in a Toyota Hylander and Subaru with no problem, but a Prius may have difficulty.

 

SIGN IN & SAFETY BRIEFING: Begins at 9:30am at Base Camp

LUNCH:   PROVIDED, after the cleanup at about noon 

BRING:  Refillable water bottle, gloves, wear sunscreen, a coat, long pants & STURDY shoes/boots

PROVIDED:  water, gloves (if needed), grabbers, trash bags
