Because of map changes with new measurments Trailwrights decided to stay with the original list that was adopted. The only change was because SW Hancock was missed by ME for some reason. At the time we debated to change the number to 73 or stay with the original 72 number. Also when Middle...

It should :) Bogus or not it is on the list and will stay there permanently. What's a few more hikes?? :)

Welcome to the club. There will be many many days of satisfaction gauranteed. Thanks for getting involved.

KJE A warm and inspiring report. I am especially hankful for the first and fourth pictures. They show the cairn that I rebuilt about a month ago with help from " Brewster" that has been destroyed many times. Happy to see it still standing. Thank You for sharing in your experience.

What trails did you use and were there any problem areas?

Roy I thought you were already there!!!:)

Sorry for this report being so late I was awaiting pictures as I forgot my camera. Hopefully Jason can supply them for me. We accomplished a lot of good trail hardening on a stretch of the Dan Doan trail a short distance up from the Mousley Brook crossing. We installed two trail side ditches to...

After a scare of not having the tool trailor and tools to work with ( Bob came down sick during the night and we just missed his call notifying us he could not make it). We were in a fix but Dave B.came through and rounded up enough tools for us to at least get our basic TLC. We sure do thank...

Tom You can do more than one a day IFFFF you start from the bottom at the trail head or class 6 road.

Scarpy Welcome to the club. I felt the same way many many years ago. When Trailwrights was formed I proposed that we develope a list and settled on the 72 Summits. We have a patch for those wishing to join the 72 summits club. There is only one catch to join the club and that is you are...

Keep up the good work it is appreciated especially by us other maintainers. Sure is rewarding seeing what you accomplished on the way back down.

Welcome plus now that you have completed the 48 you can continue your peak bagging with the Trailwrights 72 summits. Hal

Jeff and Henrey: Great to read someone really interested in the why of trail building.Previous replys say it all so my two cents is only on helping you get more education on this matter. My recommendation for getting started is studying the USFS Trail Construction and Maintenance Note book 2007...

Thanks for the comment. That area has always been a problem for us. The sign we had there is always being stolen so we thought this may work. So far it has. Hal

Artist Bluff fall clean up is scheduled for Sat.Oct 27th. It is time for getting our adopted trail ready for the spring and to continue a project we started last time out but ran out of time. All waterbars and drainage to be cleaned. Rock steps to be installed over a ledge and should be...

Mt. Pemi trail Report Continued Finally getting a chance to build on what Bruce has already reported on. Thanks Bruce for getting that info out while we were out west. I can only add totals at this point and a few pictures. We installed some 7 step stones in the 3 locations for easier crossing...

Looking for help with improvements this saturday to support the adopter of this trail. Projects depends on how much help we can recruit. Anyone interested in helping can let me know so we can plan on the tools needed. Sorry for such a late post but I have been away the last 3.5 weeks and decided...

Peg and. I were amazed at the art of trail building by the CCC on Mt. Whitney. Almost all of the 98 switchbacks were rock cribbed, just plain amazing. Some of them about 15 feet high. I will never forget what I saw on that mtn. The grading was unbelievable as well. I think the hut was also done...

A few of us Trailwrights are looking for some help on the Mt. Pemi. trail helping the adopter. Projects/Locations will be decided by how much help we get. There is much to do from one end to the other. We will meet at the Flume viitors center Parkway Exit 34A. Bring lunch gloves etc. Tools...
