Where You'll Be: 
The Mt. Evans Outdoor Education Laboratory School near Evergreen is situated on a historic property originally known as Dodge Ranch. It serves as one of two locations for Jefferson County's hands-on Outdoor Lab Schools, where sixth-grade students live at the ranch for a week and study the area's history, ecology, wildlife, geology, and astronomy. The site boasts a main lodge and outbuildings, hiking trails, and spectacular views in the shadow of Mt. Evans.

What You'll Do: 
Spend a Thursday at the Mt. Evans Outdoor Lab, where you will be led by one of our most experienced volunteers, Terry Gimbel as we reroute a trail to provide a more sustainable route.

Why It Matters:
Your efforts will help provide a sustainable route for thousands of Outdoor Lab students to safely hike around the school's gorgeous grounds and enjoy various educational attractions along the way.
