Episode Synopsis "Audio: Lees Ferry’s Private Boater’s Campsite Rehabilitated by Grand Canyon Private Boaters Association and NPS Staff."
In early February, 2010, five volunteers from Grand Canyon’s private boating community worked side-by-side with Grand Canyon National Park staff to improve the private boater camp at Lees Ferry. Crews defined camping pads, constructed trail and built fencing to define the parking area. The goal of the work was reduce human impacts to the area’s riparian vegetation and to enlarge the camp to accommodate two groups at a time. The project also was an opportunity for members of the private boating community to get to know park staff in an informal environment. http://www.nps.gov/grca/naturescience/cynsk-v17.htm
