Good morning everyone,

Last Thursday the trail construction crew was able to return to the Challenge Trail extension to continue building new trail above Doc Long!  Despite copious amounts of water and mud farther down the mountain, the area where we worked was well-drained and mostly dry. And despite high winds, we remained sheltered. In all, an ideal day, with a great crew and surprising progress made on steep terrain. See attached report for photos and more details.

The volunteers were John Braly, Phil Cromer, Byron Garner, Jim Houle, Jeff Huser, Pat & Mike Madden, Bill Perkins, Roland Stumpf, Scott Sunde and Jenny Blackmore.
