A nice little crew converged on the trail on September 20th, working on a rough clearing of trees and brush along the eastern part of the trail corridor. There is currently about a quarter mile cleared, with most smaller trees and scrub brush removed, but larger trees and more intense clearing remaining, as well as, eventually, installation of a gravel trail surface.
