Trail Report: AAT - Holcomb Creek (3N93) Adopt-a-Trail Report

[USMC 0369]

[COLOR="#800000"]The following report was submitted for the work day of November 17th, 2012. Keeping our trails open for everyone to enjoy.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="#000000"]On Saturday Nov. 17 six members from MJR's AAT crew continued with fabrication and build of the courdory road. Under the direction of Chuck the crew gathered small trees for the road surface and began notching logs to prep the road sleepers or foundation. Great care was taken to thuroghly meansure out and plot the position of all the logs making up the road base. A protype "U" shaped fastener was made that will be used to help secure all logs together once installed on the actual trail.

After spending a good portion of the day moving and lifting heavy logs for the courdory road, we left the trail under rainy cloud cover and exited through 2N06X. We expect this will be the last work day of the season

Nice report Nick

We're gonna need all hands when it's time to install the road. Stay tuned and thanks to all who come out and help, every hour matters to us.

Cheers! Tom

[COLOR="#800000"]In the first picture of Chuck sleeping... I mean "thinking"... there is a seep directly behind him on the trail. The Forest Service would like to get the vehicles up out of the standing water for erosion purposes. Hydrology is a concern for the forest. We have attempted to fill the area with gravel, but that didn't work.

Plus, MJR's Adopt-a-Trail has kind of a reputation of going big with projects.[/COLOR]
