Staying Out Of The Woods Trail Work


Good Afternoon Fellow NCTr's:

This coming week would be a good one to stay out of the woods (at least, don't wear your reindeer antler-cap if you DO go out) so I thought we'd knock out a small project at the trailhead at Watt's Mill. In the winter time in years past ATVs have skirted the gate posts and driven up the trail to the shelter area and gamelands. My plan is to put in a "kissing gate" type barrier there to discourage trespassing (and eliminate the resultant damage) while still allowing the Garretts access through the gate.

The plan is to meet at the Watt's Mill trailhead at 9:00 AM this Wednesday morning, December 1st, and spend an hour or two installing that barrier. We'll be, of course, digging a couple of three-foot-deep holes and then immediately filling them back in - our area of expertise!

If you'd like to have breakfast before going out, we can meet at Rick's Diner on Old Darlington Road in Darlington at 8:00 or so.

Hope to see you Wednesday morning. Thanks for all you do!
Dave Brewer
