Greetings,



Last Saturday, 13 volunteers from Sandia Nordic Ski Club and Friends of the
Sandia Mountains (FOSM) finished  the Klaus trail  which is located below
 the Service Rd. and extends from Ellis Trailhead to the Sandia downhill
ski area.   James Carpenter, Sim Cook, Shana Dellios, Jon Dellios, Scott
Dietrich, Annie Driskell, David Dunlap, Paul Gourley, Pat Madden, Mike
Madden, Barry Roberts, Ed Trzcienski and myself completed  the south
section of Klaus recently leveled out with a mini-excavator by Bruce
Hansche, Scott Dietrich and myself.  Reseeding of this section will be done
later this fall to  return this ski only trail to a natural state during
the during the off season. Work is also  near completion on sections of the
Sandia Nordic trail above the  upper 10k meadow.  These improvements have
the  goal of creating a safer, more enjoyable Nordic ski experience for
skiers of all abilities.  Klaus trail will also allow us to continue to
groom the ski trails in late season after the Service Rd. is plowed.

Thanks to all who participated and for those who couldn’t make it, we
should have another Saturday outing in September. Remaining pre-season
projects also  include putting up snow fencing in several areas and  trail
signs so stay tuned. Big thanks to FOSM for their help and  tools  and also
 to Forest Service staff Kerry Woods, Russel Berman, Joseph Jaffa-Martinez
and Jeff Cervantes whose expertise and assistance helped make this project
possible.
