Comments: First BRATTs volunteer trail crew work day of the season.

A special AMC-BRATTs female crew worked on the lower Benjamin Weeks Trail, installing 100 feet of cribbed footbed.

The remaining BRATTs worked on the Mt. Rowe Trail, fixing 50 feet of washed out footbed at the start of the boardwalk (installing two waterbars) and cribbing 65 feet of filled footbed further up the trail, with a paved waterbar for multi-use.

The next BRATTS volunteer work day is scheduled for May 21 on Gunstock.
