[Volunteers_fosm] Reports of Paint Crew, Sept. 29, & Felling Trees in Cienega PA, Sept. 30

[DAN BENTON]

Hello Everyone,


This email contains the Paint Crew report for work on Tues. Sept. 29, and the report of the hazard tree felling in Cienega PA on Wed., Sept. 30.


1. Paint Crew Report -- At the request of the SRD, on Tuesday 9/29 the FOSM paint crew started striping the parking lot at Sandia Crest. This is a heavy use area and requires yearly attention. Manny's maintenance crew closed off the lot so we were able to get the upper lot striped and dried before the arrival of visitors. We moved to the middle lot and prepped and striped 21 spaces. By lunch time the south end of lot was filling fast so we packed up and returned to the SRD to put up our equipment. Many hikers and several out of state visitors were enjoying our beautiful mountain. Painters were Jane Harrison, Rikki Barrett, and Ellie & Russ Parker. We saw several groups of bucks and does on the way up as well as turkey. (Ellie Parker)
