OEF Trails Access

OEF Workday @ Bluff Creek 07/17/04


Report by Marcel Slootheer

A small group of dedicated souls showed up for the OEF trail workday at Bluff Creek on July 17th. 7 (yes, only seven) people managed to do a great deal of work, from lopping & weed eating most of the trail to building a 100ft section of new trail that by-passes an older section that has been an eyesore for a long time (a low spot that stays muddy for a long time and has grown in the last 2 years). Give the new section a few months to pack in and hopefully it will flow fine (or not)...

Many thanks to the following individuals who showed up:

Shane Jones (BC trail boss)
Lanc Gross
Pete Singleton
Charles Duke
Marilyn Dillon
Tony Vails
