To interested parties:
There is a plan taking shape to do trail work on Mount Pleasant this
coming Saturday. We use the trails of the Swandrome for skate skiing and
cyclocross, and we use the wider Mt. Pleasant trail system for mountain
biking, skiing and snowshoeing. In order to maintain the condition of the
trails we need to put some effort in and clear brush and remove fallen
trees from across the trails. We can facilitate grooming on some trails by
cutting back encroaching brush, and by doing some grading to level things
out. We can make night skiing and riding easier by refreshing the white
trail dots on some trees with new paint.
None of these tasks are large or difficult. They just require man-hours
and a few tools. So......I propose we have a couple of work sessions during
the day on Saturday Nov. 10, with one outing leaving Swan Cycles at 10:00AM
and the second leaving from Swan Cycles at 1:00. There will be work gloves
and tools provided, as well as hot or cold refreshment. Enjoy a walk in the
woods and then enjoy the fruits of your labors for the rest of the season.
C'mon out,
Glenn Swan
