Description:

Light raking needed from Fox Hollow up to the steps or summit.

Meet at the Fox Hollow trailhead parking lot.
Possibly 5 miles depending on # of people and how far we can rake. I have not checked the main trail from the paved lot but unless we have a lot volunteers, we won't have time for that section.
We could go for pizza after the project.

Trip Report

Six enthusiastic Obsidians raked from 2:00- 4:00 from the Fox Hollow Trailhead to the last two switchbacks before the steps. We took a break when Jeff Krueger's landscape architecture/trail design class stopped to talk with us about mud and drainage. Tired and muddy we headed down the trail looking forward to nourishment at Pegasus Pizza.
