From Don:
It was a beautiful day in the Sierras, sunny, calm and clear. We met at
Sailor Point Rd and had a very good turnout. We split into two groups
with Gary led one group up Texas Hill coming down Sailor Point. I led
the other coming up from the bottom. It was light trimming with a few
moderate trimming areas. Gary finished at the top pretty quickly and
headed up the road towards Black Mountain and did a few log clean ups
there. Our group finished trimming by 11:30 and all of us met in Onion
Valley for lunch and social time. There were a number of campers
including RVs and a a group of side by sides.
After lunch Gary led a group out to Helester (?) Point to clear a tree
about a 1/4 mile from the point. Gary can comment on how his day went.
The rest of us headed up Texas Hill Rd to Big Valley Bluff. We saw a
number of vehicles and camp sites on the way, hunting season was still
open. Came across a good size dead tree blocking the way about 1/2 mile
from the bluff. The crew did a quick job of getting the tree cut and
moved out of the way. Then everyone enjoyed the fantastic view from the
bluff. We came out FR-19 to Yuba Gap. The road was damp, very few mud
puddles, no dust and little patches of snow at the top. A nice trip out
with beautiful scenery. Off the trail about 4:30. I think everyone
enjoyed the day, I had a great day it was good to be out and about with
a great group of people.
I would like to thank everyone who attended for their help clearing. We
now just need some snow and we would be set for WFF.
