Just wanted to show what YOU can do to help keep trails open in your area. Check to see if Your forest service has an Adopt-A-Trail program and if they don't, Find out about starting one!

Here is a write up by Burchie from our recent outing to help out.

It was a warm July day when 8 LOST souls adventured out of their suburbia comfort zone to clean up the the great out doors. We were lead by 3 of the best the National Forest Service had to offer: Travis Mason, Orrin Wyatt, and Mike Cross. Here some of us are getting our instructions for the day.

The first task of the day was to remove a old pipe that was sticking out on to the trail.
Image

Then we removed some rather large rocks that were in the way.
Image
Image

And were did that pipe go? It went that a way.
Image

Time for a break and to take a look around. Swim suits optional.
Image
Image

Then it was time for power tools. Our experts called it bucking and shucking or something like that. All I know, it was hard work.

Leaving your passenger door open is the international signal to alert motorist that there are city folk on the trail.
Image

And for our final project of the day, was to clean and replace some trail signage.
Image

A job well done!!
Image

"Dad, can I take the car tonight?"
Image

So that was our day out in the woods. Well, the desert. Thank you to everyone who came out, and there still is a lot of work to do. So until next time, remember to leave your campsite cleaner then it was when you got there. And as our dear friend Woodsy the Owl says, "Give a hoot. Don't pollute. "
