2 - 4 trucks are required to skid out the trees and at least 6 volunteers
are needed.
 
This project is moving along pretty fast - but we need more volunteers as
the weather will only get colder!
The sooner this project gets completed, the sooner a new road will be built
and access granted!


Approval has been given to begin clearing the right of way around Camp Chamisol.
Volunteers are needed to clear approx 1KM X 8m of road.
Most trees are no more then 6inches in diameter and will have to be hauled out.
Spray Lakes has waived their right to the salvage so the posts and rails can be used in future projects.
Tops and limbs can be burned on site depending on ground conditions.
The stumps will be used for controlling traffic on the other trails in the area.

NOTE: Hard hats, steel toe boots, safety glasses and chaps must be worn!!


ATV's and trucks will be needed to haul materials out of the project site and to the MS Camp.

What to bring: Lunch, water, work gloves, warm clothing and chainsaw
