The AT Corridor Boundary exists to protect the Trail. Monitoring the Trail’s corridor boundary lines helps to prevent harmful encroachments on the Trail’s valued landscape.This work ensures that the corridor is kept free from encroachments and illegal uses as well as finding and maintaining the boundary’s surveyed monuments.
The group will bushwhack along the survey lines, using map, compass and GPS, to locate the survey monuments, record their details, repaint "witness" and "line" trees with yellow paint blazing and place U.S. Boundary signs as needed. Some clearing of brush along the boundary sight lines may also be required. If you like to get off the beaten path and learn new orientation skills, this would be a perfect hiking activity for you.

Description
Appalachian Trail (A.T.) is a project built on civic engagement. It exists because people like you step up and help out in a variety of ways, outdoors or inside. Activities can be physical (such as Trail work or boundary maintenance), creative (like contributing photography or writing), or organizational (like planning or leading activities).
Volunteers gain new skills through their work. Whether you volunteer because you enjoy time in nature, want to forge new friendships, or appreciate having a deeper connection to a place you hold in high regard, we are glad you are here.
There are a variety of ways to contribute your talents and your time.
