[pct-l] Trail section in Goat Rocks being rebuilt

[Betty Wheeler]

Hi, Bill & list:
I've started a photo journal of the first week of this work, but still have
some photos to add (including photos of the old sign showing stock and
hiker routes, and the new sign showing 'PCT Alternate - Old Snowy,' and
photos of the trail chopped in the snow). Bill, let me know if I
misidentified you in the last photo that's up right now -- everyone's head
is tilted down, so my IDs could be off.
The journal is here: http://packwoodglacier.wordpress.com/
