3/1 through 3/5:  Beautiful weather, we were cutting trail through some of the rockiest, rootiest terrain on the park.  Finished some really cool rock features about halfway through the Mountain Creek (connector) Trail. 

3/9 through 3/12:  Continued work on trail through some of the rootiest terrain that we have come to yet.  Built trail up to the wide open turn above the springhead.  On Saturday Hands on Greenville came out and helped us mask some trail and hog out stumps.  We had a great day with the Hands on Greenville volunteers.  We got a lot done, and had a good time.

3/15 through 3/18:  Laid out a different flag line up the hill to the access road behind Shelters A&B (to eliminate building a switchback that would possibly be shortcut anyway).  This hill was really rooty as well, and we finished the trail all the way up to the road by the end of the week. 

3/23 through 3/25:  We finished clearing corridor all the way to the water easement and cut the raw trail from the access road behind Shelters A&B to the power line cut.  We also took apart a rock lined ditch right behind Shelter 4 and then installed 24 feet of concrete culvert pipe.  The Lake Placid trail is now officially handicapped accessible from the handicapped parking lot all the way to where we plan on building the S-turn puncheon (about 3/4 of the way around the lake). 

3/29 through 4/1:  We came back to find that Wayne Bower had finished about 75 feet of trail on his own without us, awesome.  We finished trail all the way to the water easement (masked and all, about 750 feet this week).  We also hiked around and scouted out some things that need to be fixed, reroutes on Sulphur Springs, Brissey Ridge and Firetower Trails (These trails have some areas that are eroding badly, and are almost dangerous to walk on at all).
