Updates from the Trail:
We have quite a few projects to update you with, including some work in the North Fork John Day Wilderness in the Umatilla National Forest. Click the maps with the photos to see where work was completed. This year, we are seeing a lot of downfall across regularly maintained trails.
Upper Bear Creek Trail #1653:
The crew continued working up Bear Creek Trail #1653, going up 11 miles, clearing upper Bear Creek to Granite Creek. They cleared 133 trees and repaired/cleaned 32 tread structures.
Deadman Trail #1869/Sugarloaf Trail:
Volunteers worked down the Deadman Trail #1869 from the upper Wilderness Boundary toward the Imnaha River, clearing over 60 trees in 2 miles, and repairing signs along the way.
North Fork John Day Wilderness:
Volunteers have been working on Big Creek Trail #3151, Forks Trail #3019, Miner's Cabin #3186, Moon Meadow Trail #3029, Fitzwater Trail #3010, South Winom #3153, and Corral Creek Trail #3009. Their work has so far cleared 26 miles of trail and 323 trees so far this season.
