Session Three!

Another great session and A LOT of work completed!  Thanks to the great volunteers who came out and made it happen! Check out some of the adventures this session....

Getting ready to pack-in to the work site
 
Stretching is important before a hard day of trail work!
 



Usable rocks for the project were hard to come by, so sometime they had to travel a little ways to the worksite.


Artie knows his way around rock work!  After rifting their step, they had to roll it down the trail a ways.

 
Bob got really really good at filling in his steps with crush and fill.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Finished rock step  -- great work Amanda and Artie!
 
 


Enjoying a great evening the last night of the session...

Thanks to a great hardworking and fun crew of volunteers!!
