[pct-l] Northwest Snow

[Steve Queen <stevequeen@csi.com>]

Yes, I clearly misread this.  A crew of 10 did brushing and
tread maintenance near Ramona Falls (3400') and we found only 
a couple snow globs by the Sandy River.

Hey Craig, you interested in doing trail maintenance on the 
PCT?  If so, contact me off line.
