MCP Trail Maintenance

[Big Al]

@TAS , Ron and myself cleared 4 downed trees on the Upper Blue trail today. There was a really big oak near the power lines. A couple other trees around the corn field. The last one was an awful mess. Pictures don't do it justice. Got it done. 👍

There are a couple more trees down on Blue and we will get to them soon.

Funny, I got an E mail as well on this. Marked as SPAM!

We had 4 volunteers yesterday for Mercer trail maintenance. We had the brushhog out there and we improved the sight lines on the Blue trail by the East Picnic Area. We continued down the Blue trail and over the double bridge, took a left and worked in that area trimming back thorns, removing vines and raking the sweetgum balls off the trail. Thanks to Ray Z, @JennyRydes and @SAM .

Also, all the reported downed trees have been removed.

Next scheduled TM day is Saturday 4/18 at 9:00 am. Hope to see you then. 🤘
