After consultation with the Forest Service, a trail work day was organized for the trails in the area around Mt. McLoughlin. A baker's dozen showed up to get the work done and enjoy a beautiful day in the mountains.
After a short orientation meeting at the Summit Sno-Park, the group divided into 3 or 4 work parties. We cleared the upper McLoughlin Trail, Billie Creek and Lollipop. We were sure happy to have 3 certified sawyers with chain saws; especially, as West Billie had a number of huge logs to clear. Meeting for lunch at the bottom of Billie Creek we were graced by a lengthy visit from a male Western Tanager.
The work went smoothly and safely and the group assembled at the Fish Lake Resort for food and fellowship afterward. In spite of the Father's Day Fishing Tournament, there was plenty of room for our crew. Our hostess Debbie stated that she was happy to see our cross country ski group in the summer.
