Trip Report

We met at the Mt. Baldy parking lot for an evening of light trailside brushing. We hiked up to the top of Baldy, which isn't very bald, cutting back blackberries from the trailsides and even cutting back the rare branch encroaching on our personal space.

It was just about the perfect time of year for this outing as our work afforded us to opportunity to natures bounty of small treats torn from the brambles as we cut them back. Some of our group even saw lizards while working.
