We went south out of town to South Laird road to help these guys clear a portion of the North Country Trail, near Alston.
|
Doug explains how his classic DR mower works. |
|
She really cut them weeds down! |
|
He got most of the parking lot cleared before it broke down.
Oh well. |
|
Next, we got into trail clearing heading west, from the parking lot. |
|
Someone had cut through the down falls, saving us that work.
Even so, it was a mess! |
|
Oh ya, after Doug got the parking lot mowed and the
first section was cleared, it was time for lunch. |
|
After lunch, just a short ways in, these dead falls
had been across the trail for years. Gone! |
|
We stop for a break. Ya Marj, I don't get out much,
or have anyone rub me good. |
|
Ya Linda, I was just saying no one ever touches me. |
|
Many, many leaners and dead-falls were removed today. |
|
Down now, rather than this winter. |
|
Hey! Everyone is having a snack but me. |
|
I took dips in Wiggle creek.
It's brown with tannins. |
|
Late in the afternoon, we hiked out. |
|
It was adventure filled!
Plus we also got more than a mile cleared. |
|
We bid our farewells and made plans to do more later. |
