Trip Report

Due to the cold weather our project for the month changed from planting salvaged plants on the summit to independently clearing drainage features (culverts, ditches, and rolling drain dips) along the Main Trail.

Clara Emlen immaculately cleaned the trailhead stairs. The rest of our group of Thanksgiving surviving trail work volunteers met at the main parking lot and hiked up to the summit clearing drainage along the way. At the sunny but cold and breezy summit we enjoyed the views of snow covered Cascade peaks before hiking back down picking up garbage along the way and clearing any drainage we skipped on the way up.
