[pct-l] PCT Trailwork Project Oct 6-7

[Kev]

Hello Pacific Crest Trail Volunteers,
    On October 6-7 the Pacific Crest Trail Association will hold a trail 
project in Section E in the northwest corner of the Angeles National 
Forest. If you ever thought you would like to volunteer to help maintain 
one of our premier long-distance scenic trails, this is a good opportunity.

We will do mostly brushing and treading between Atmore Meadow Rd and 
Bear CG, at about 5400' elevation (mile 500) on Liebre Mtn, above Three 
Points.

Volunteers should meet at 0715-0730 on Saturday morning at the pullout 
at the junction of Pine Canyon Rd and Forest Rd 7N23 (labeled "Bushnell 
Summit" on many maps), here:

A high-clearance vehicle is required to access the area, but 
Saturday-only volunteers can combine into high-clearance vehicles with 
other Saturday-only volunteers.

PCTA will supply all equipment and tools, and meals for overnighters. 
Volunteers can pick either day to work with us, or both, and camp with 
us at Sawmill Campground.

Overnighters will get fed dinner and breakfast. Otherwise, Sunday-only 
volunteers meet at Sawmill CG Sunday morning at 0745 with a packed lunch 
and the day's water. Directions to Sawmill CG:

Volunteers will need to bring leather work gloves, robust footwear, sun 
protection, wear long pants / long-sleeved shirts for working in brush, 
and robust weatherproof shell. Day volunteers should also bring a sack 
lunch and water. A short bit of hiking is required to access the work.

Feel free to forward this announcement on to other interested parties. 
As the date approaches I will provide any additional details to those 
signing up.
Please respond directly to Section Chief Dave Fleischman 
<owldave57 at gmail.com> or me <hikevv at gmail.com> if interested in 
volunteering.

    THANKS,
