Trip Report

We met at the main Spencer Butte parking lot to begin this month's trail maintenance outing. We are continuing to install fencing along the West trail to keep people and other park goers from cutting the switchbacks. Unfortunately, this trail maintenance date conflicted with this year's Summer Camp.

Our turnout was four nonmembers three of whom had never participated in trail maintenance or any other Obsidian activities before. They found out about trial maintenance through advertisements on the trail heads and in the paper!

We cemented in two more sections of fencing on the middle switchbacks of the West trail. We accomplished a lot of work in just two hours.

Participants: Erin Hewett, Marie Dement, Victoria Montanez, and Katie Napier (nonmembers); Christer LaBrecque (EPOS); Matthew Bell (leader).
