Number of workers: 1 (Jim de Friess)
Time spent: 9.5 hours (includes commute)
Work accomplished: Shear work on the southern end of Rock Jock,
concentrated in the area north of Tee shirt point.
Details: I met Ken at the southern entrance of Rock Jock and we
proceeded down the trail. Our initial plan was to hike to Moonshine
canyon and work back, but we clipped a little along as we went north.
We made it to tee shirt in about 1.5 hours, and beyond there the trail
thinned significantly. It is still easily discernible, but the path is
crowded. We went two drainages past Tee shirt and out to point beyond
the second one furthest east along the trail. Clipping the non grass
(and some grass) back to where it should be.
We then hiked out pretty well spent from the full son, high humidity,
and 80 degree temps. The bugs were out too- all day.
In reflecting back to last year it took a lot more trips to get the
trail pushed north and open as far as we did yesterday in one trip. So
it is getting easier. Walking out -up the last hill to the road, tired
did not make me feel like it was getting easier however.
It was a good day in the woods, Mossy falls was flowing cool refreshing
water, and the company was first rate.
