Lynn Woods
Trail Maintenance - 2009
Project Location: Lynn Woods
Project #: LYW20090426
Date:
04.26.2009
On Sunday April 26 the first 2009 Lynn
Woods trail project was completed. It was a hot day and we had a limited
number of volunteers who should up. Because of these factors, we had to
scale back the amount of trail work. Our goal was to build-up and armor the
three major turns on the Espresso Trail, but we were only able to complete
one.
The 85 plus degree weather (crazy for
April) did not stop the 7 volunteers that worked hard digging, pulling rocks
and cutting trees to build up the first switchback turn on the top of
Espresso. This switchback was originally cut tight, but we decided to open
the turn up by bench cutting the trail line higher into the hillside making
the turn wider. We will revisit this trail over the next few weeks making
any required adjustments to refine the berm.
As usually, this was a good size
project and even with the April heat wave, everyone work hard to get the job
done. I want to extend my personal thanks to each individual (listed below)
that helped complete this project. The amount of work completed by the
volunteers was backbreaking a difficult working on the hillside. I look
forward to see everyone again in future trail builds and or maintenance
projects.
