Volunteer rangers are asked to do four hikes per year in any of these areas, educating passersby.

The next training session for volunteers will be held from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. June 8 at the Eagles Nest Community Center, 2700 Golden Eagle Road., in Silverthorne.

Interested volunteers can sign up at eaglesummitwilderness.org.
