This event will be done a little bit different since the Forest Service has had a budget cut on many activities this year. At the time of this post I do not have a grasp of how much involvement the Forest Service will have. I could range from none to a couple of them independently driving through the area. As such we will organize our club to provide coverage to the tree cutting area depending upon numbers of members who participate.
Meet at the Divide Philips 66 at 7:45 am. Leave at 8:15 and go to the Rule Ridge parking lot at 8:30. That is where we air down and get a briefing on the latest conditions, areas to patrol, maps etc.
Remember to bring a GMRS radio (we use channel 5-0), recovery gear, winter clothes, tire chains, coffee and lunch.
We do a debrief at 3:00 pm back at Rule Ridge, air up and go home.
Please reply to this thread if you plan on going on this day.

Attached is a PDF of the Tree cutting area and the FS roads that we patrol.
