SUMMARY:Trail Clearing: Pipestone Creek (A53 to hill before A51)
DESCRIPTION:Note: we are likely doing Pipestone Creek on September 3rd but the schedule is still evolving. With the heat during the August 27th maintenance we were unable to complete the Ministik so Brad J. & Sherry K. will be going out on Tuesday (2nd) to finish. \nMaintenance always depends on the weather; so check the website before coming out. \nIf you plan to attend contact Helen W. (helenwhitson@gmail.com) so she can provide you with the workplan details and directions to the trailhead. \nPlease bring your lunch\, water\, wear older clothes and be prepared for hiking. \nNote: The trail maintenance crew are covered by WCB.
