A big thank you to all who joined us Saturday in our efforts to improve the Egg trail! With the help of at least forty volunteers, the popular approach to Crescent Crack, the Egg and other areas saw the addition of ten timber check dams/water bars and one grade dip all designed to divert water and to reduce trail erosion.
The inaugural "Purge the Spurge" portion of the project netted hundreds of pounds of invasive myrtle spurge and concluded with re-seeding of the affected areas with native grasses. A very special thanks to the Oakley School for their participation, to Outdoor Research for their generous donation of dry bags, and to Jeff, Zac and Shingo for their efforts in organizing the day's festivities.
The next stewardship project will be on June 5th when we revisit Ferguson Canyon to finish up the belay terraces and accomplish general trail maintenance.
