Build low erosion steps on a well-used, gentle canyon-rim trail

The steepest sections that residents already use daily to reach the canyon rim wash into loose ruts after every rain, forcing people to scramble on unstable ground. Setting simple timber or stone steps into the already-graded, gentle sections of the trail gives people a stable foothold without disturbing the surrounding slope. This work is limited to established, moderate trail grades. Standard: UN-Habitat safe public-space guidance; SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) Proof: Photo of the finished, stable steps Method (UN-Habitat safe public-space guidance; SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities)): 1. Confirm the trail section is an established route with a moderate, walkable grade. 2. Clear loose debris from the step locations. 3. Set timber or stone risers into the existing grade using hand tools only. 4. Backfill and tamp each step to lock it in place. 5. Photograph the finished steps and record the build date. Done when: Photo of the finished, stable steps

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash. You see which before you claim, never after.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 30–60 minutes. Method of record: Community-coordination hazard survey (documentation + coordination only; severity-tagged)

Bring

• GPS phone
• camera
• hi-vis vest
• severity-tag reference (minor|moderate|severe|critical)

Steps

1. 1. Walk the corridor from a safe path; record a GPS waypoint at each hazard.
2. 2. Photograph each hazard.
3. 3. Classify the hazard type and assign a severity tag (minor|moderate|severe|critical).
4. 4. Name the responsible handoff target (BID / city agency / utility).
5. 5. Enter each hazard's type, severity, GPS, photo, and handoff target into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• NEVER perform repair or enter the roadway/public right-of-way -> documentation and coordination only.
• Any severity:critical (e.g., live downed wire, open utility vault) -> flag immediately to the responsible agency; keep clear.

What counts as done

• Each hazard photographed with a GPS waypoint
• Severity tag assigned per hazard
• Hazard type classified
• Named handoff target per hazard

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
