FOTR.rocks

FOTR does rock but www.FOTR.rocks is a new website for Friends of the Rubicon. It was revealed at the Friends of the Rubicon annual meeting yesterday in Placerville.

More than 40 people attended and heard about the upcoming plans for the 2026 season. El Dorado County had Zach Perez and Tim Canavarro from the Parks department talk about the upcoming season.

The season will start with a trail clearing run, mostly inspecting the Tahoe side to see how the water is flowing and maybe draining a few spots along the way. The date has not yet been decided. We’re waiting on the melting snow.

On June 6th, there will be a work party to clean energy dissipators, drainages and remove trees from the trail from Buck Island to Step.

At the end of the season, there will be a ‘end of season’ run on the Tahoe side to make sure the trail is ready for winter and specifically heavy rains.

Please contact Shannon, our newly re-elected Trail Boss at FOTRTrailBoss@gmail.com if you would like to volunteer or if you’d like to get put on the FOTR email list.

RTF provided pizza to end the event.
