We (Barbara, Joe W. and I) pressed forward in spite of the weather to get some more trail work done. Barbara did some grubbing to get rid of the smaller growth. I widened the last 100 feet that I neglected last weekend and continued pin flagging the trail. Both of us were about ready to quit at 11:30 when Joe showed up. Barbara bailed back to the car and Joe and I went back to work until about 2:00. Joe took the ax and worked on widening the trail while I did preliminary trimming on the next 1000 feet. Joe went crazy with the ax so now it’s wide enough to drive a truck through (it’ll grow back). The slope I was dealing with was about 10 percent the way it was initially flagged so I had to do switchbacks to get the grade more manageable. We worked on section 1095 to 1105 and we pin flagged to about 1110. maybe next weekend we can get out there both days. Oddly, there were lots of cows mooing across the creek.
