Black Oak Springs Trail rehab part deux Cache In Trash Out® Event

We'll be rehabbing the nature trail at Black Springs, site of a puzzle cache, to make it easier to follow; the trail is currently obscured by fallen branches and is hard to follow. It should take a couple of hours of semi-backbreaking raking and re-defining the trail; There will also be some CITO along the roads leading to the trail and a few new caches to find after the work is over.

Part one was held just after a snow storm so we were only able to clear a path through two fallen trees. This time we'll complete the work on the trail itself.

This is a nice little nature trail set up in the 1990s. It doesn't appear to have been maintained recently, so I decided it would be a good CITO project. The trail was originally defined by long branches, which we will restore. One of the nature signs will need to be replaced in an appropriate spot so there will be some post-hole digging also. Bring work gloves, water, snacks or lunch, heavy-duty rake, chain saw, PHD.

Sign ins start at 9:30; work will start about 10 and should be done by 2.

Ice chest with water, some snacks and swag will be provided.
