Description

This trip is in preparation for the weekend trip, where our trail crews will be clearing the 612 to 611 section of blowdowns. The purpose of this trip is to clear smaller debris like sticks and branches so our trail crews don't have to stop as often on the weekend. We will use small tools like loppers, saws, and an axe to clear anything small. We will hike from the 612 trailhead to the Helveys Mill Shelter and back, if we have time will will go further but may not.


Location

612 trailhead to the Helveys Mill Shelter
