August 26 and 27 Trail Work




Good Afternoon Fellow NCTr's:

After a much-needed week off we're ready to head back out to the trail. Here's the plan for this week:

Thursday morning, August 26 we'll go back out to the Gateway Bridge area to finish off the digging project we started on the approach to the bench, and then head west into Mines and Meadows to clean up a short piece of sidehill there and get the blazes repainted. We'll be leaving Jata's in Wampum at 9:00 AM and driving up to the Mines and Meadows campground entrance on Darlington Road. Come earlier to Jata's for breakfast if you'd like. We'll be out until 11:00 AM or so.

Friday afternoon, August 27 we'll be heading for PA Gamelands 285, the Sterling Road trailhead, at 5:00 PM and work for a couple of hours on grubbing the 100 yards of flat trail remaining from where the Mt. Olive crew finished up back to the old iron bridge and existing trail.

If you need directions to either work site please let me know. As always, I'll bring the tools and the paint - bring along work gloves and something to drink. The weather forecast for these two days looks great - hope to see you on the trail!

Dave Brewer
