BlackZZR’s Trail Patrol

Ran up to the peak on Friday, July 27. The bottom sign pointer has been bent around quite a bit, we straightened it out but it appears like someone tried to bend it back and forth to break it off and it twisted up a bit. The 2N84A trail up is in great shape.

2N84 Final Workday of ’06

We started Saturday morning and we cleared and trimmed trees and brush from 2N84B and 2N84A. Our previous projects including the culverts, sign installs and hill climb blocks are still standing strong. Did I mention we cleared some brush? We also visited the peak and our nonexistent geocache. Yes, folks, it’s been stolen…
