    Default DFP - Thurs. 6/9 @5:30pm

    Only planning on working Thursday 6/9 @ 5:30pm at Dorrance this week to beat the heat. We'll be digging trail and building a bridge.

    Rogue hoes and flat shovels are needed. As always, I'll have extra tools available.

    We're going natural with the first 12' bridge and milling native timber for the structure. We'll need 1 or 2 extra impact drivers (I have bits) to screw down deck planks.

    Meeting near the bathrooms in the inner parking lot at 5:30 and working until around 8:00. Get directions to the park here. See the map below for how to get to the work area if you can't make it that early.

    Update: We're up to .6 miles of trail.

    If trail work doesn't get rained out, I plan on being there tonight to help out.

    Very low chance of rain this evening and at this point we're still planning on working.
