First two days of trail work

It was a cool morning when we were picked up at 9:00.  We met the 3 other forest people at the firing range for clean up.  It was really a mess.  You can not imagine the stuff that people shoot at... golf balls, tennis balls, plastic bottles, aluminum cans, pineapple and of course targets.  they don't bother to pick up anything, it took the 7 of us about 2 hours to clean up the big stuff...  we then went to a smaller range to pick up there too.  it was not as bad. the rain began just as we were driving to the second range.  We went to drop off the garbage then headed back home.  it was raining really hard by then.  Of course the rain stopped at about 4:30 just when the sun was going down.

Second day was sign day.  we prepared signs...

repaired placard holder...
installed the placards on the trail..

Our work schedule is Mon-Thurs, 6 hrs a day.  The new campground hosts will arrive on Jan 20, so we moved back to the hosts spot until then.  will do double duty for a few weeks.
