My First Time Doing Conservation Work | New Hampshire SCA Spring Hitch
I take a different perspective on the outdoor recreation world, and how parks, wilderness, and ecosystems are maintained for conservation.
My introduction...the New Hampshire Student Conservation Association partnered with AmeriCorps.
I would formally learn outdoor skills and practices for longer vision conservation in parks and public lands with varying foot traffic.
On our test run Spring Hitch, as a crew of 5 we give our time and attention to :
Forest Lake State Park

Jericho Mountain State Park
Milan Hill State Park
Umbagog State Park
As a group, we come from different experiences and backgrounds.
Together we expand our outdoor skills and tackle land management projects and ...

    Just discovered your channel randomly and it's super interesting and helpful for me as I'm going to embark on a US solo trip myself including many national parks and specifically Big Bend. One thing I don't really understand is how to figure out where should I go inside those national park?

    • @bryantsinka
      @bryantsinka 9 месяцев назад

      Awesome! The beginning and planning of a trip is exciting because everything seems possible. In regards to figuring out where to go it all depends on what you like. A great place to start would be the national park website or visitor center. They can offer things to do which may be appealing to you and within your capabilities without putting you at risk. For me I was mostly hiking anywhere I went so I used online blogs and apps such as all trails to find my trails. The hikes I like are challenging and have great views in the area (longer distance and more elevation gain). The more difficult anything the less people you will come across but not always. In the case of Big Bend I knew there were Hot Springs worth trying to find, Emory Peak being the highest point, canyons along the Rio Grande worth exploring, and the port of entry into Boquillas Mexico as seen here. It helps to start with activities you are most interested in then prioritize them with the time you have in the area. I would also note campgrounds and places to stay for cheap (or in my case free) are limited so plan campgrounds/ such ahead of time. Enjoy your trip! If you have other questions I'm can share tips and thoughts from my experience. I really just looked for places and things I thought were cool and wanted to try. Hope this helps

If you are in an accident, the airbag will not deploy. This can increase your risk of injury in an accident." Jan 21, 2021
