Hello everybody!

In the morning, off to The Lab, where the cats were fed and all taken care of.

Soon after, finished up the junk pole panel.

In the afternoon, cleared up the trail leading up to The Red Cabin.

Then while finishing up, Mr. Paul showed up and ended up harvesting some potatoes!

The day ended for real after eating some hash brown Mr. Paul made for us all. Yes, delicious! Thank you!

Hello!

At Allerton Abbey this morning, fed the Abbey cats. Then went on to chopping firewood.

At Basecamp in the afternoon, I started clearing a trail that I cleared a few weeks ago.

Then went on to change one of the garbage cans at the Willow Bank.

From there, sand was put over the gravel on the top of one of the stairs.

Afterwards, began collecting rocks that are to be placed on the trail that leads to the Red Cabin.

That's it!

Hi!

For the first half of the day, went to Allerton Abbey. The Abbey cats got food and fresh water. Then went onto chopping more wood in order to replenish the cabins or anywhere where there is a RMH.

While up there, got to water the apple trees.

For the second part of the day, did some rock harvesting. The idea is to place them on the trail leading to the Red Cabin.

Ended the day with a Taco Tuesday dinner.

That's it for now.

Hello,

In the morning, fed the Abbey cats and continued with  chopping firewood.

In the afternoon, continued with the Red Cabin trail. Unfortunately, that was cut short since it began to rain. After the rain, got back to it again but not until I saw a 🌈
by the mountains!

That's it!

Hi!

At Basecamp, in the morning, tidied up the Red Cabin.

From there, spread mulch on top of the berm shed.

Took care of Willie Wonka by making it operable again.  Yehh!

Afterwards, cut wood into smaller pieces from  tree that was fell.

In the afternoon, continued with the Red Cabin trail.

That's it.

Hi,

Today stayed at Basecamp. In the morning did some filling of the panels with junk poles.

In the afternoon, continued with the trail project going to the Red Cabin. I collected more rocks and leveled out the path.

Then took some time out by filling in another set of steps with gravel and sand.

Once that was done, refilled the Willow Bank with water and toilet paper.

Then back to trail maintenance.

That's it.

BEL #30,

Hello everyone!

This morning at Basecamp, was working on junk poles.

In the afternoon at Basecamp, continued with the trail.
Once pretty much finished with that, moved on to chop/ drop small trees.

After, added more wood chips to the bucket at the Willow Bank.

Ended the day, with chainsaw maintenance.

That's it,.

Hi!

Today all day, morning and afternoon, it was all about filling out panels with junk poles.

Shortly, more new panels will be going up at Basecamp. This will definitely be a good not overnight project which will be taking place.

That's it!
