Here is the info from Terry.
Hi Everyone – The next work day is Saturday, February 21st at 10 am at the Uwharrie Hunt Camp. The main focus will be on Daniel Trail to install the barricades that are necessary there to keep traffic on the trail through the archaeology sites. Darin joined Joel Hardison and myself this week to flag these sites and figure out what we need. We’re getting more guardrail and posts purchased and delivered for this workday. There are 3 main sites where we’ll be installing guardrail and signing these areas for “No Camping” and “No Vehicles”. There will be one section along the trail that we’ll use vehicles and winches and block off the edges of the trail and short bypasses.
I will be going around on the trails and installing as many orange diamonds, arrows & trail numbers as possible to improve the marking of the trails to help people really follow the correct trail routes. I could use one person to go with me in our gator for the trail marking.
The trail maintenance contractor started on Wednesday and should be done by April 1st. We’ve got a wooden guiderail contract going out and will hopefully start at the beginning of March to replace some guardrail on Rocky Mt Loop, Slab Pile & Dickey Bell Trails with the permanent barricades of the large wooden fencing. I hope that will be done by April 1st too.
I’m not sure if Snappy will be making lunch or not but I’m sure he’ll let us know if he is soon. Thanks a lot for your help and continued volunteering. For the clubs that haven’t sent their Adopt-a-Trail forms back in I’ve attached them again. Please fill them out if you’re still interested in being trail adopters. For the folks that came last work day and said that you’re interested in adopting a trail you can fill out the forms and leave the name of the trail blank for now and when I get all of the forms back from past adoptees I can see which trails don’t have adoptees and we’ll have you take on those trails. If you have any questions about trail adoption feel free to ask.
Carolina Broncos – Will you be coming up this weekend to work on your stream crossings? Please contact me directly and let me know.
Bye - Terry
