SUMMARY:Trailwork Party - October 23rd
DESCRIPTION:Now two weeks into the fall trail work season and the project to a half mile of the Skyline Trail. We lost today due to the high winds but the last night’s rain was much needed and will make the work and trail better. The work with the excavator has been completed and now the trail needs to be cleaned up. The rocks need to be separated from the needed dirt and then hauled away\, then the trail bed smoothed out and new gravel put down. Right now it is about 35% cleaned up and 10% has new gravel. Lots left so come help! \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Skyline Trail from the upper service road crossing to the junction with the Canyon Trail by the towers will remain closed until this project is completed. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Trailmaster will lead work parties every Thursday through Sunday mornings starting at 8 and ending at noon until around Thanksgiving. The work will be to complete the Skyline Trail project and then move on to other maintenance. The Trailmaster knows\, you always wanted to help but can’t seem to get an open day to do it. Well you can schedule a day now and maybe find a friend to come along! \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTHE SCEDULE:Work days are Thursday to SundayTime – 8 to noon \n\n\n\nMeeting Place for all days this week: by the Trails Building at the Badger Mountain Westgate parking lot off of Dallas Road. We will then carpool to near the work site. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Trailmaster will provide all the tools and even some homemade cookies at the break. Volunteers need to bring work gloves\, water\, and snacks with a small pack to carry them\, and dress for the weather forecast. There isn’t any work for preteens – it is hard to keep them motivated for 4 hours. Those 13 to 15 will have to be accompanied by a parent or guardian. You will need to sign-up so the Trailmaster can plan the work\, bake enough cookies and let you know if plans change. Please let the Trailmaster know that you are coming by sending an email to trailmaster@friendsofbadger.org

SUMMARY:Trailwork Party - October 30th
DESCRIPTION:Update: The project to widen about a half mile section of the Skyline Trail is in the threes. We have worked on it for three weeks\, a third of the trail is completed\, a third has had the initial cleanup and the final third is just a mess. As a comparison\, last spring we completed about 1000 feet in 7 weeks doing all the digging by hand. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Skyline Trail from the upper service road crossing to the junction with the Canyon Trail by the towers will remain closed until this project is completed. \n\n\n\nThe push this week will be to clean up that last third. The rocks need to be separated from the needed dirt and then hauled away. After it is cleaned the trail bed will be smoothed out and then the gravel will be laid down. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Trailmaster will lead work parties every Thursday through Sunday mornings starting at 8 and ending at noon until around Thanksgiving.
