Well, you probably noticed there is snow on the ground... Just enough for skiing, barely. Went early Friday AM, enough melted Friday that skiing is no good till more falls. Maybe tomorrow, I hope. Corby North is pretty good skiing if there is at least 4". Less than that and it's no good.
Made some progress on the Girlscout camp today. Dave, Lance, Jim, Shawn, Adam, Tara, and I hit it for a couple hours. It was pretty cold up by the cemetary. We had a hard time figuring out a good line on the cemetary hill. We thought there was some danger of erosion with the line that was marked, so we had to figure out a new one. After that it started rolling pretty good until all three saws started having trouble. That was about noon or a little after, and I think most of us were toast anyway. I'm guessing that we knocked out between 1.5 and 2 miles today... but it's tough to tell.
Dave and Lance going to town on a helluva big fallen log - Dueling Chainsaws.....
Lance and I hiked what is left to do after we were done cutting. We were guessing that there is probably 2.5 or 3 miles to go still. Some of it will go very quickly, some will be a fight for every inch. Still don't know for sure, but it seems like the GS trail could pretty easily be 7 miles when finished.

Just had a thought this morning. Want to send out a huge thanks to all you guys running your saws for the trail effort. Besides the cost of a saw, it's not cheap keeping those things wearing a good chain, full of gas, and soaked in oil. Not to mention all the time you must spend cleaning your equipment, fixing broken shit, and sharpening chains.
If you haven't heard it yet today.... Thank YOU!
Sorry I could not make it.. Next time..
You guys are great...
I have to say that I never thought in a million years, that when I started riding, I would meet such a great group of awesome people..
