Sunday October 22, 2023 will be our second trail maintenance run of the year on Strawberry Pass Trail. This is the trail the club sponsors. To maintain member status you must make at least 1 trail maintenance run a year (so if you missed the spring maintenance or the August Forest Service show-n-tell, this is your opportunity). Our key goals for this run are bucking trees down in the area, trash pickup, any erosion control we can address with hand tools, etc. We will use the club's HAM PosseV2 frequency for communications, so bring your HAM radios.

Also, as a reminder, maintenance runs are a great opportunity for anyone needing to host a bbq/pot-luck for membership to do so. If you plan to do so, please post so folks know and can contribute.

Meet at the Subway/Shell station in Pollock Pines off of Hwy 50 and Sly Park exit at 8:30am. We will meet and after a quick drivers meeting will head up to the trailhead about 9:00am.

Pollock Pines Subway/Shell Station
6529 Pony Express Trail
Pollock Pines
CA 95726

Things to bring:

-Trash bags

-Gloves

-Loppers/hand saw 

-Chainsaw (please only USFS certified operators, no exceptions) and safety gear (chaps, eye protection, ear protection)

-Crowbars/breaker bars

-Shovel

-Water

-Lunch

I plan to be there. It will be my 2nd trail/event so I am bringing food as an early "bbq". I plan to bring sandwiche fixings.

 

Will be checking back on 10-20 for a head count.

Kathy and I will be there (head count of two). I will bring a large bag of Doritos chips.

Question for trailmaster Brian regarding potential member BBQ: Will we be having a group lunch or will we be split up at lunch time?

Also as an FYI, I see that there is a chance of rain in the forecast for Sunday.

I can bring some home made cookies.

 

Indeed, looks like 85% chance of rain in Kirkwood on Sunday with a high of only 40 degrees, would Saturday be better, only 5% chance of rain and much warmer, 53 degrees

Personally I'm not concerned if we get some rain on Sunday. I put my full doors on today in anticipation of rain. I would like to have kept my half doors on until after the maintenance run but I would have put the full doors on right after the run anyway.

Joey (my 15 year old) and I are hoping to make it. With that said, if we are not there in time, do not wait on us. It all depends on how I feel when I get up. It is a day to day struggle to just get upright in the morning. If you need to call me, 530-499-0429

I have other commitments on Saturday, so hopefully the date isn't changed. Short of Hurricane Katrina, weather doesn't bother me. I will check back this evening for headcount.

If it stays on Sunday I will be able to come help also! I have some family commitments on Saturday and wouldn't be able to make it. Also I picked up a cheap hamm radio, but I have no idea how to program it.
