Dorrance - Black Loop Features - Sun 7/7 @ 9am

[DH001]

Feature work continues this week at Dorrance (weather permitting).

Sunday 7/7 @ 9:00am - Meet in parking lot and we'll be working at different points along the black loop; mainly along trails in the ravine with the creek crossings. We'll get a couple Casey's pizzas for lunch.

Work Scope:
- Working on tech features: ladder bridges, drops, creek crossing armoring, and possibly some rock work.
- Hauling treated lumber, decking, and rock to feature sites.
- Special tools needed include cordless drill/impact driver for building wooden structures. T-25 bits for screws. Charge/bring extra batteries. Basic carpentry tools would also be useful (pencil, tape measure, etc).

A loadout of basic club tools (rogue hoes, flat shovels, etc) will be available; enough for ~8 people. Bring your own if you want to.

Bug head nets are recommenced. I'll have DEET bug spray also. Bring plenty of water.

Update From Last Week:
- Installed the last section of french drain to prevent seeps from keeping trails closed.
- Built a large ladder bridge log over.
- Hauled a bunch of heavy things up a big hill in +90F temps.

Apparently there is a big softball tournament at DFP this weekend so parking will be even more limited than normal. Parking is available at the top of the gravel road hill if there aren't any spots available down below. I'll try to park near the picnic shelter on that hill and we'll meet there.
