[Volunteers_fosm] Remove trees from Survey Trail near highway, Wed., 1-5-22

[Sam Beard]

Hello Everyone,

Ski Club member David D Antonio and others reported many trees down on Survey Trail near the highway late yesterday.

Byron Garner agreed to lead a crosscut saw crew tomorrow (Wed., Jan. 5) to work on Survey Trail in the wilderness, and I will lead a chain saw crew to remove trees near the Crest Highway. We will need both sawyers and swampers.

Meet at 9 am at the FOSM Guard Station behind the Ranger Station. Bring personal saws, snowshoes, hard hat, lunch, snacks, drinks, very warm clothes, warm work gloves, ear and eye protection, and chain saw chaps.

David reported that the Crest Highway was in good condition.

We will park in the lower lot at Ellis Trailhead. We will decide if we will snowshoe from Ellis and carry the saws and supplies or haul the equipment and supplies to the Survey Trail crossing of the highway and leave them there.

Please email or call me if you have questions. 505-828-0673
