This year's annual Trail Work Weekend
was held on September 18-20, 1992 and we were blessed with perfect weather for
our efforts. The goal was to completely reroute, flag and clear the Cooper's
Loop Trail from Mislaid to North Lake since previous trails were completely
lost. The trail was flagged, cleared and raked by two teams which started at
Mislaid and north and luckily the teams managed to meet somewhere in between!
Thanks to the hard work of those
attending, all that's left to do is posting the permanent markers next summer.
This now makes the Cooper's Loop Trail a real loop and provides a number
of options to hikers in planning their routes. Some major chain saw work was
also done on the JC Trail where the beavers and wind had conspired to
block the trail at the west end of Mislaid Lake where it starts toward Drag
Lake.
Participating this year were Trails
Chair Ken Wrigglesworth (81-82,85-86) and his wife Akemi, Dennis Cook (85-89),
John Hulley, Shaun McFarlane (83-84), Dr Ross Parrot (84-92),
John Stephens
(82-84), Dave Taylor (83-87), Kent Taylor (86-90), Greg Taylor (91-92), Jeff
Wilson (85-86) and his wife Wendy,
Don Wrigglesworth (86-88). Special thanks to
Mark Purcell (80-84,90-92) for cooking all our meals on time, even if we
weren't!
Work is also continuing on a Trail
Guide for campers describing the routes and providing a variety of information
to assist scouters. We hope to have the first working draft ready for next
summer. |
