Volunteers needed for connector trail project in Breckenridge

More than 100 members with Volunteers for Outdoor Colorado worked to complete the final, 3,000-foot stretch Galena Ditch Trail, pictured here in 2016. This weekend, Volunteers for Outdoor Colorado will host more volunteers to build a new trail to connect Galena Ditch to the Tiger Dredge Trailhead.
