SUMMARY:Noxious Weed Pulling July 25th
DESCRIPTION:Another noxious weed pulling effort on Candy Mountain is planned for this coming Wednesday. Yellow Star Thistle is nearly in full bloom and will soon be setting seed. The volunteer crews are trying to prevent any seed formation and dispersal this year. Unfortunately\, the Star Thistle is maturing faster than the weeding crews can remove it all. We could use some additional crew members for a while! \nWhen: Wednesday\, July 25th\, 2018\nMeet at: Candy Mountain Trail-head parking lot\, off Dallas Rd. on PR 669 Rd.\nTime: 7:00 – 10:00 am\, but feel free to join us at any other time that fits your schedule. David Beach will meet volunteers arriving at 7 am in the parking lot.\nDuties: Hand pulling Yellow Star Thistle plants ranging in size from smaller seedlings to larger plants already blooming and developing spikes. We will bag and remove any plants nearing bloom stage\, which is most of the plants at this stage.\nTools: Bring good strong gloves! Some volunteers have used small pruning clippers\, or small forked root-cutting “stabbers” on a handle (like an asparagus harvesting knife). Generally\, just pulling the plants has proven to be the most practical method.\nPulling location: Approx. 1/2 – 3/4 mile up the trail on the north slope\, facing West Richland. If you don’t meet up with the group in the parking lot\, hike on up and look for us down-slope from the trail. If you get to the first big switchback-turn on the trail\, looking down on the West Richland water storage tank\, you should see us down the hill. Terrain is sloped and uneven. \nPlease forward this notice to anyone else you think might be interested. For those who might not be experts at knowing the difference between noxious weeds and native plants\, we will give guidance. \nReply to davidbeach47@gmail.com so we have an idea who to be looking for\, or just show up with your gloves\, sun protection\, drinking water\, snacks and find us. Since we are working some distance from the trail-head and are constantly moving along\, having a small back-pack or fanny-pack is useful to carry your “stuff”. If you have some plastic grocery bags\, bring them along for the blooming plants and we will have larger garbage bags to collect in also. See you on the mountain in the cool morning air!

SUMMARY:July 18th Noxious Weed Pulling
DESCRIPTION:Yet another noxious weed pulling effort on Candy Mountain is planned for this coming Wednesday. Yellow Star Thistle is reaching bloom stage and will soon be forming seed. The volunteer crews are trying to prevent any seed formation and dispersal this year. The manual pulling efforts last year yielded very good results in the areas we were able to cover. However\, the invasive weed pressure is still strong in some areas not reached last year. Continued volunteer help for a couple more weeks\, should give us a good start towards returning the Candy Mountain Preserve to a more pristine natural state. \nWhen: Wednesday\, July 18th\, 2018\nMeet at: Candy Mountain Trail-head parking lot\, off Dallas Rd. on PR 669 Rd.\nTime: 7:00 – 10:00 am\, but feel free to join us at any other time that fits your schedule. Dave Beach will meet volunteers arriving at 7 am in the parking lot.\nDuties: Hand pulling Yellow Star Thistle plants ranging in size from small seedlings to larger plants already starting to bloom and developing spikes. We will bag and remove any plants nearing bloom stage. Less-mature plants will be pulled and left to dry up on the ground. The blooming plants are becoming more abundant. \nTools: Bring good strong gloves! Some volunteers have used small pruning clippers\, or small forked root-cutting “stabbers” on a handle (like an asparagus harvesting knife).\nPulling location: Approx. 1/2 – 3/4 mile up the trail on the north slope\, facing West Richland.

SUMMARY:Trailwork Party for National Trails Day
DESCRIPTION:The Friends of Badger Mountain will be teaming with the Kennewick REI store for a National Trails Day work event. We will be working from 9 AM to noon. Please come a little early to sign in. \nWe will be clearing the weeds away from the edges of the Canyon and Sagebrush Trails. We like to remove the grasses\, mustards and other plants from around the rocks along the edge of the trail and from the uphill edge where they are narrowing the trail. The weeds will be pulled or cut off with hoes and McLeods. Kind of like working in a garden. \nWe will meet at Trailhead Park and break into groups\, pick up tools and hike up the trails for the work. All work will be on the Canyon and Sagebrush Trails\, there will not be any work in Trailhead Park itself. \nYou should bring water and snacks\, work gloves\, sunscreen\, and dress for the weather forecast. All tools will be provided. Since we will be moving along the trail while we work\, you should also bring a small pack to carry your water and extra cloths in. \nSignups are not required but it would be nice if you let me know that you are coming. It helps with planning and making sure we have all the tools we need. Please let me know by sending an email to trailmaster@friendsofbadger.org

SUMMARY:Trailwork Day - April 22nd
DESCRIPTION:This week our trailmaster is leading trail work days on Friday\, Saturday\, and Sunday from 9 AM to 1 PM on Candy Mountain. The work will be to recover the gravel that has wandered off to the side of the trails. We will be working with rakes and McLeods. If you are interested in taking part please let our trialmaster know by contacting him at trailmaster@friendsofbadger.org. \nNote that there is little work for preteens and younger\, it is hard to keep them on task.

All tools are provided.
