We will be working 4:30 until 7:30 in a couple different areas. Tues/wed will be spent in the vacinity of the boyscout bridge near the new structure we built last week. I"ll bring the tools and the ATV. Just bring gloves and water. Post up if you can make it and which day. I will tell you how to get where we are working. Thx!

David,
You and Craig did a really nice job!  Here is the structure just before the Boy Scout Bridge.

Thanks Jeff. This one was Craig's design I just hauled all the stuff out there and helped him assemble it.

That new roller is nice!   Great idea to add a feature instead of just a standard elevated platform.  Pretty tame so should be fine for all trail users as that area gets traffic of all levels.  Thanks for all the hard work.

That was the idea. We wanted it tame but interesting since it was on the green trail. Glad you approve!

I would not sweat showing up right at 4:30 if you're a little closer to five it will probably be better. Park at Lakepoint pavilion (paddleboats) walk across the dam through the little gravity dip to the two big piles of gravel and we will see you there shortly. We will have the ATV and dump trailer out there running this gravel back-and-forth to where were using it. If you happen to get there between trips just hang out for a minute and we will be by to pick you up! Thx

Is the boy scout bridge the one that goes over the spill way for the lake?

You coming out to help kit? If so, just park at the lake walk across the dam and thru the little gravity gulley to the two big gravel piles. We will be running back and forth from there.

Got to say my trail crew rocks! Thanks to Craig, Scott, & Brian for coming out last night!
Tonight we will be working on the damn crossing. Park at the paddleboats walk across the dam to the little gravity dip and you will see us there. The plan is to have the bobcat and for any volunteers to hand finish after the machine work. Post up if you can come out and I will make sure to bring the tools!

Big thanks to craig and emily for their hard work out on the trail today. We finished up the rework on the area before the boyscout bridge. With all  that he put into it this week I think we will rename that craig's corner.
