The Spring Maintenance run is this Sunday, May 20th. Since this is the spring run and the snow level is uncertain, we'll cover the trail from the 50 side only. We'll meet at the Chevron/Market/Deli at Fresh Pond.
Meet at 8:30am and leave by 9am.
We should plan on doing some of the following items:
Litter removal
Re-direct snow melt water runoff from running down the trail
Dragging smaller downed trees off the trail
Cutting larger trees with chainsaws
Blocking un-authorized bypasses
Trimming overgrown brush
Checking the Culverts for blockage
I will need to ride along with someone, my Jeep is getting a new transfer case and rear driveshaft, I don’t think it will be ready in time.
Remember that you can ride with other members as well. Bring at least a garbage bag and some gloves.
Other helpful items are
Shovels
Rakes
Loppers
Chainsaw
Pry bars
Pruning shears.
For members/active prospects - 1 maintenance run attendance is a requirement under our by-laws, so if you cannot make the fall run on Saturday, October 13th, you should plan to attend this one.
Also – bring a sack lunch and plenty of water
Can I get a count of who is in?

Um...what?- Guest former userGuest former user
I'll be there!
Additionally, Sean (coworker) would also like to attend and is former Placerville volunteer firefighter (10 years+ I think). He's got chainsaws. This is same guy that accompanied Jeff, Greg, and myself on the night snow run to MET. He did some upgrades....

Sidenote: Will it be prudent for me to be last vehicle in the possibility of not being able to get by Pinch Rock?
