Participant Information

This will be a weather-dependent outing.  If it's not raining, we will head up onto the Demon Ridge trail and cut back the annual growth of alder to maintain this trail to Demon Peak, above Watersprite Lake.  If you have not used a brush cutter before,  this is your chance.  Lots of scope for chainsaws too, if you know how to use one.  If you are not running power tools we will have lots of branches and stems to toss off the trail.  No previous experience needed.
