Oregon gulch volunteer trail work day

Oregon gulch volunteer trail work day

                                            
         Thursday, June 16th, 2011
         Oregon Gulch Trail head
          17:00                                   
                                               
The new trail up Oregon Gulch gained momentum today with the volunteer work day.
Members of the Northwest Youth Corp trailcrew started connecting the trail over the new bridge circumventing the old trail taken over by aggressive beaver action.


The Sawtooth Backcountry Horseman provided a cookout  with healthy portions for all volunteers.
  So after a bit of thankfulness for the weather, 
                     
The Mule Skinner demonstrated amazing adeptness controlling the team with verbal commands and reign actions.




    After the log was delivered to the clearing, the Youth Core began peeling the logs to dry for a future project up the gulch.

          































  The skinners headed back for another log for the project.






































And the last log brought in
  to be used on the project .


      Amazing kids the youth corps are. Spending a month plus out in the woodlands clearing trails.



  Will update on progress on the trail.
