Trip Report

For this outing, we met Josh at the Dillard West parking lot for a casual hike and outing in the heat. Our group grabbed tools and headed down to the bridge on the Dillard Connector Trail to clear left over storm debris. We made pretty short work of clearing the storm debris and were greatly aided by Josh\\\'s use of the pole saw to cut up the larger pieces. We searched for another culvert to clear to no avail before returning to the trailhead parking lot for well deserved snacks and juice. <br /><br />

Special thanks go to Janet for bringing delicious snacks and to Clara for staying late picking up litter in the parking lot.
