Diggin' in the Dirt

Diggin' it second weekend in a row. Got out early Saturday, we had a good turn out of folks...

switchbacks

It was cool got some need tools from the Ranger, and asked if everything we planned to do is cool? Not only was it cool, but told of out of all of the groups he deals with at the Park, he has complete faith in what we're doing out there. That was cool. so hopefully we don't screw that up.

We Started at the top and made our way down, getting rid of the straight fall line sections of trail and carving it up into some "S turns" and switchbacks... we have two more sections of turns planned (further down the trail) that we just didn't have enough folks for this day.... so if you're not doing anything the 29th come on out, bring the kids! we'll be providing lunch and refreshments!
