AGREEMENT FOR SPONSORED VOLUNTARY
SERVICES
I desire to make available volunteer services to assist the U. S.
Forest Service through partnership with the Indian Peaks Wilderness
Alliance Wilderness Volunteers.
Description of work
involved: To assist in managing and protecting Wilderness and
backcountry areas on the Boulder & Sulphur Ranger Districts. Duties
include the following: Make public contacts in order to provide
information about the Wilderness, the area, regulations, the LNT
principles, wilderness management, philosophy, and related topics; and
collect visitor & resource data.
Responsibilities
include the following: While on duty, identify yourself by wearing
appropriate IPWA uniform components; conduct all activities in a safe,
courteous, and friendly and professional manner; exercise good
judgment in dealing with the hazards of the high country wilderness
environment and take no unnecessary risks; limit all contacts to
daylight hours only.
The Wilderness
Volunteers will not attempt to conduct any law enforcement related
activities. Wilderness Volunteers may do additional hikes beyond
their scheduled hikes, provided they first call or e-mail IPWA
Volunteer Coordinator or the Wilderness Manager with the U.S. Forest
Service, Boulder Ranger District, prior to the hike. Leaving a
message on their answering machine is acceptable.
I understand that,
while volunteering for the U. S. Forest Service, we must follow
applicable U.S. Forest Service safety regulations.
This agreement
covers the time period for the day after the annual IPWA Training
through the day prior to rifle hunting season in Colorado this year
(usually the 2nd week in October).
