While I don't have jurisdiction over much of this, the Road Fork Section, Points 27 (7/2011 map & guide) to 31, perhaps out to Whipple 03 should have the 1st trail maintenance. And this should take place before June 30th annually. The reason is that we have an economic cooridor between these points. I say perhaps Whipple 03 because Points 01 - 03 are not a very popular destination. And that segment has an adopter who usually comes in July. I supervise that section, but that segment is something that I shouldn't touch. Probably the most that I can do is hike through and collect waypoints on downed trees so that my NFS point of contact can cut them?
From the time of the ground thawing to May 31 is the most ideal time for benching. This is the physical widing of the trail's tread with a mattock axe. It's typically done on a hillside. I must say that I have no idea what condition my lower back will be in by that time?
At the moment, I have to get in control of my own finances. I'm projecting that January 1st will the be the first time my budget can properly reset and get straightened out? At the previous board meeting, we're not getting any back up. But I didn't request any. The BTA has enough on it's plate and I've decided that we're going to go it alone. And it's becoming imperative that we start becoming more independent locally.
This is where January comes into play. I'm going to use it for trail promotion, but I'm not ready to publically state where, when or how?
