These 18 volunteers and 2 Forest Service personnel, generated 54 hours of volunteer stewardship on our local National Forest lands. They performed trail maintenance on Windy Point Campground Road 5-95.1A, including delineation of a single-track trail, trail closure and restoration work in braided and road grade areas, and built water structures for erosion control efforts. In doing so, these volunteers helped provide for a more natural trail experience in the forest, resulting in an excellent opportunity for a gentle hike to a beautiful destination for the many users of Summit County’s local National Forest lands! A special thanks goes out to our sponsors – City Market, Safeway, Noble Sysco Foods, Beaver Run, New Belgium Brewery, Vail Resorts, Copper Mountain Resort, Serenity Spa, Samplings/The Cellar Restaurants, Translux Theaters, Silverthorne Rec Center, Latitude 40 Maps, and Forest History Society – for providing us with the great food spread and the “out”door prize giveaways! Remember to support our sponsors next time you’re in the mood to spend some cash!
With sincere thanks,
