Can you give us a hand?
Our Natural Areas Management Team is thinning trees and brush at Mt. Crescent to restore natural systems and expand skiable terrain. We need help dragging trees and brush down the hill and and loading it onto trailers. This brush is used by the zoo to feed large herbivores.
Help is needed any time between 8am and 4pm.
Pre-registration is required. Please park in the parking lot at Mount Crescent Ski Area, 17026 Snowhill Ln, Honey Creek, IA. Before registering be sure to read our Activity Liability Waiver here.

- Reusable water bottle (water refill stations will be available)
Rules and considerations:
