Oct 6, 2011 mid Rock jock

Date of work :10-6-2011
number of workers: 2 - Ken Crump and Jim de Friess
time spent: 17 hours includes commute
Work done:  Ken and I went in to mid Rock Jock to work on trees across the trail that were a little higher than step over.  We worked on 4 waist high trees.  Two side by side about 300 yards from Split Rock, a big pine just north of the next creek heading south (Zen creek) and another just before the second creek heading south (Razor creek).  If my memory serves all the difficult trees to cross have been addressed for the entire trail.  We'd like to do a little more work on the pine near Zen creek, but we were able to cut it once and leverage the top part to the north creating a gap that can be stepped through. 

The other work we did was to clip the trail from about 300 yards south of split rock all the way to razor creek very well. 

The thin spots (need more clipping) in the trail are from razor creek south to somewhere on the other side of Moonshine canyon.  Also from hackers point to beyond split rock. 

The trail however is discernible and open, and now has four less hard trees to cross.

The leaves were beautiful, and it was a great day in the woods with great company.
