US Forestry Service Volunteers (1970s)
In the 1970s, a group of 50 volunteers from across the United States participated in a conservation project near Pike’s Peak, Colorado, where they blazed eight new miles of hiking trails on the Colorado Trail. These families learned navigation skills using compasses and maps while camping and working together for two weeks. The initiative was part of the National Hiking and Ski Touring Association, emphasizing community service and environmental stewardship.
