Mix Stopover Trail Clearing

Seven came out to clear the 3 km orphan section of the Mix-Cloverlawn trail.

We used chainsaws, mower, hammer and shingles, signs, and clippers.

It was a beautiful, sunny day, and we appreciated the morning coolness that lingers longer now.

The cranberries are ripening and the bees and wasps are still active.

We are happy to report that the stopover cabin is in great shape.

The people coming to the barbecue on Sunday will have a pleasant hike.

Ministik Trail Clearing

Eleven came out to clear the Ministik Lake trail from Spilstead Access to just past Horseshoe Lake. This is one of the longer sections for trail maintenance because there is no exit point along the way. We pushed the predator 5 km in and 5 km out.

We also used chainsaws to clear deadfall and clippers to clear branches, and we replaced many faded signs.
This tree has a huge shelf fungus that we’ll be sure to point out on the hike on Sunday.

The lunch break was well-deserved. There are more photos on Flickr.
