| Comments: |
This is our adopted trail and we went to perform the first of our several trail maintenance trips. The hike along Jewel and Boundary Line was a pleasant substitute for doing the whole trip to and from the trailhead along the road. We managed to get a lot done but there’s still a lot left to do. Need to cut back the new growth and would like to improve the cairns above tree line on future trips. |
