North Fork Lick Creek Trail Project

Project Description
The Hum Lake Trail, on the Payette National Forest, is a backpacking and day-hiking trail that is very popular with families and individual recreationists. It is located 8 miles from McCall and from the trailhead, it ascends over a small pass beginning at Duck Lake and cutting across head waters of Loon Creek and down the North Fork of Lick Creek to Split Creek trail.
ITA will partner for the third season with the Payette National Forest to maintain the Hum and Duck Lake Trail by cutting fire and beetle-killed timber blocking the trail. Additionally, ITA will work to re-establish a 1 mile section that runs into Upper Loon Creek, that is overgrown and has been neglected because of the shrinking forest recreation budget. Here the work would be clearing and tread work, to a hiker only standard. For 2013, ITA will bring 6 volunteers to the project for 2 full days. ITA will provide training on proper use of cross-cut saws and trail maintenance skills and food.
