Sunday Trail Work

Date: Sunday, 9/24, 8:15 a.m.
Location: Fisher Mountain Trailhead on Millbrook Road in Thornton
Level 1 trailwork

The group will be meeting at 8:30 am at the Fisher Mountain Trailhead on Millbrook Rd for some level 1 trail work.

We'll use powered brushcutters, loppers, and hand saws to finish the brushback of the USFS access road to Fisher Mountain and Dickey Notch Trails. Last night 13 of us got out and made it pretty far. The group included residents of the Millbrook Road community who use this access road in all four seasons. We should be able to finish up Sunday with enough people.

Bring gloves, water, and bug stuff (spray, nets). Bring loppers, hand saws, and rakes. I'll bring everything else and I'll have some post work refreshments. It would be good to have one additional brush cutter on top of mine.

There will be no more Tuesday Night Trail Work given sunset time getting too early.
