Day two of NCT segment 34 clearing!

Oh ya.  Josh came out to help today.  I love him!  We got at least another mile cleared today so this post will be big.
Our ready-to-work crew heads out past the trail signs.

We cross a creek that drains into a hole and shows up 30ft later.
Is there a culvert under here?

This is a logging RR grade.
We spied trees leaning in that will come down later

Ya, it's better if they come down now, while we have the saw out.

This will help the NCT stay cleared longer.


Trail mutts do stay busy out here!

Hunting is always good around here!

Josh ran a heavy duty whacker to clear the shoots
and weeds out.

Everyone is looking for future problems in the canopy.

We found this one right across the trail.

Funny that some people think pole saws can't cut much.


Arly says this hung up crown will be down today.


Just like that, we cleared this portion.

Where did this old trail marker come from?

Here!

I got hot n thirsty.

I love tannin flavored creeks!

We take a break together.

What a gorgeous valley the trail follows.

More leaners being removed

We've been out here all day, so maybe we should head back?

Everyone was getting tired.

Down in another gully and back up we go.


The fungus among us. It was soft and rubbery!

Yet another gully.

Almost back.

Some trail people got tired on the way home.

Trail mutts know all about getting tired.
