Trip Report

Our group of volunteers met up at the Dillard East Trailhead for Baldy. We hiked up the shared use trail to begin our work and broke into 2 small groups. One group of Mari and Janet brushed the trailsides cutting back a vine, Poison Oak, and Madrone. The second group of Beejay, Matt, and Dan followed Joe up the trail to add 7 drainage dips to the tread of the trail. <br />

Special thanks to Janet for bringing tasty treats.
