[Volunteers_fosm] Announcing FOSM Trail Project for !!!TUESDAY!!!, 3/17 NOTE that ERIC RUSSELL is leading, reply to him.

NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT:

Yes, !!!TUESDAY!!!, 3/17 (ST Patrick's Day).  The weather forecast is 
rain & snow again for Wednesday-Thursday next week so I'll see if anyone 
can show up on Tuesday.  Yes, it wrecks my weekly schedule too (tsk 
tsk). Sorry for the later than usual notice but I've been waiting for 
the forecast to improve but it hasn't.  The forecast says "Mostly 
Cloudy" for Tuesday right now so be prepared for our unpredictable 
weather. Optimistic though.

BOB WILL BE GONE:

Please reply to ERIC at russells at swcp.com. We'll be continuing the work 
from 3/5.


PROJECT DETAILS:
On !!!TUESDAY!!! 3/17/20, (weather permitting) the Friends of the Sandia 
Mountains (FOSM) will again work on the Cienega/Armijo Trail Improvement 
Project (CATIP) for the Sandia Ranger District (SRD). Note start time below.

Please plan on carpooling to the extent possible because we will access 
from private property. Space in carpools will be available leaving from 
the SRD. The hike in to the work site is about a 3/4 mile. We got a lot 
done on 3/5!


PLEASE RSVP:
So we can plan for tools, hard hats, and transportation, please let me 
know by email or text 1) IF you plan to participate, 2) IF you need a 
hard hat, and 3) IF you have any questions.


START TIME:

For those meeting us at SRD, be at the FOSM shed ready to 
go at 0830. Plan for a chilly start in the morning. Bring your own 
lunch, snacks, liquids, and sunscreen. We will eat lunch around 1200, 
work until 1400 or so, then hike out.

REQUIRED ATTIRE:

The standard USFS trail work PPE requirements apply: approved hard hat, 
eye protection, no open-toed shoes, work gloves, and pants (no shorts), 
no exceptions. An approved hard hat can be provided if 
needed. NOTE: short-sleeved shirts are fine for cutting tread but 
brushing, including trail obliteration, requires long sleeves.

Weather or trail priorities can change quickly. Assume the project is a 
go but watch for any last minute update or cancellation. Thanks.
