Rock Creek Trail Work

From a list I belong to. Sounds like a great opporunity for us to get out and help with some trail work on trials we all get to enjoy.

This Saturday April 18th at 9:00 AM, members of the Columbia River Longears and Backcountry Horsemen are bringing their mules to pack in the gravel to finish off the second culvert and some muddy spots on the Tarbell trail (Rock Creek Horse Camp).

They would appreciate help loading the gravel into 5 gallon containers and folks to help hold the mules or open the gravel bags when the gravel needs to be dumped. This may be the only time you ever get to see our equines put to this kind of work!

Meet at the shelter around 8:30-8:45 . Nancy Rust will also lead a riding trail clearing party up the Appaloosa trail and across the creek (this is a little too high for us two legged creatures to cross hence the need to ride your horse across) where there is a flagged trail that needs brushing out.

Call Nancy at 360-253-7307 for details.

Randy will bring up a pot of chili for lunch and you know he is a better cook than I am so it will be something to look forward to. This could be an entertaining opportunity for people. At the same time this is going on there is a goat packing party at Bells Mountain. I think I will bring my camera and show my animals what it means to be useful.
