We had a PHENOMENAL work day last Saturday! We ended up with 24 volunteers (including two Forest Service representatives) so we got a lot accomplished!

• We worked on the Clarke private property (through which we have a legal easement in place for public access) down at the mouth of Laborcita Canyon outside La Luz.
• We filled most (not all) of the holes caused by the old water line failures.
• Cleaned rocks and weeds from most of the rail bed (though there’s more to do).
• We worked on most of the old wood culverts — cleaning out the input sides — we have more to do with those.
• MAJOR IMPROVEMENT: We routed the rail bed around one of the more dangerous spots near the end of the property.

MORE TO DO IN THE FUTURE

• More tree and culvert prep (amongst other various tasks)
• The entire south side of the rail bed needs to be ditched for erosion control
• Other moderately dangerous area (more holes) will need some serious work

Thanks everyone for coming out!
