New River Trail, massively more was cut today

Yes that is correct, with the number of helpers we had today, we advanced a great distance.  Not sure how far we got, maybe 1/4 of a mile farther along.  But we are within 500 ft from the gorge now.

With 2 saws going and 5 others pulling brush away, progress was fast!

Andre, Carolyn, and Evan got their gym work-out.

Smithers was along to supervise.
 He says, hunting was no good with all that noise.

Mark stops to give his saw some TLC.

Martin joined in the fun too.

Carolyn knows to keep her distance...Timmmmberrrrr!

BIG thanks to John D for being a sawyer today.

Another BIG thanks to Bridget and John D for coming out.
They brought the kids as well.

Another crew will be out this Sunday...they could use more hands. If you can help, email Jay at jbgreen45@charter.net

The kids chipped in too!

Yes, it's a lot of work, but lengthening the River Trail is worth it.

And a BIG thanks to Becca who got to learn the finer points of clearing a trail.

Yes this is what we remove from the corridor.

Heading out, safely over the muck.
