This was the annual National Public Lands Day trail maintenance event. Routine trail maintenance; lopping, cleaning drains and correcting erosion damage was performed. There were 18 volunteers present. Met at the Mishe Mokwa parking lot on Yerba Buena Road. Conducted tool talk and safety briefings. Broke up into 3 crews. One crew worked eastward from the parking lot on the BBT. Crew two worked on the BBT/Mishe Mokwa connector trail and the third crew worked on the badly damaged section on trail near the trailhead. All sections of the trail were brushed and numerous drains were cleaned of accumulated silt. The badly eroded and trenched section near the trail head was improved. This section of trail was not completely repaired. It still needs lots of work. It may become a special project next year. Stopped work and hiked back to the parking lot. Completed the project. Drove to Circle X Ranch for an NPS hosted lunch. Total volunteer hours: 18 Volunteers x 4.5 hours = 81 hours Feet of trail maintained: 3,690
