All Wheelers - Ahtanum State Forest Work (May 30th, 2009)

All Wheelers Off Road Club -
Ahtanum State Forest Work Party
May 30th, 2009


On Saturday May 30th, 2009 some of the All Wheelers Off Road Club members came up to the Sno-park to do some more work on the Green Dot roads and trails.
Image

We first headed up the Mid Fork and then up the Whites Ridge Loop Trail.
At the top of the ridge as the trail turns west we found a broke Green Dot Marker.
Image

As we went along we added some new Green Dots to the markers that had the tops of them broken.

As the trail turned toward the south we found some down fall in the trail.
The members had the trail cleared in no time.
Image

We turned up the Whites Ridge Crest Trail.
At the top of the second climb we had a big tree to remove from the trail.
People had a by-pass around both side of it.

Test Dummy cut the tree.
Image

Fatboy pulled the tree out of the trail with his TJ.
Image

Volunteers moved the debris.
Image

Fatboy pulled the tree onto the most used by-pass.
Image

Volunteers put what they could find at the top of the by-pass.
Image

At the next intersection we replaced a broken Green Dot Marker.
Image

Image

Havo showing us how to stick Green Dots. lol
Image

Just up the trail we started hitting patches of snow on the trail.
Image

Monster jumped out of the Jeep to move some branches from the trail.
Image

Here we placed two new markers since there was a new logging road pushed in.
Image

Image

On up the trail the loggers had a big mess.
I drove up what I think is the trail until I couldn't stay on top of the snow.
I wanted to be sure this was the trail before we placed a Green Dot Marker. I walked from here.
Image

I found the trail again where the snow is on the left.
Image

We went back down to put the marker in at the start of the logging.
Image

Heading back down.

I was driving the Tweety Jeep.
Here are the other member rigs:

Jeepscum found trash the loggers left us to pick up.

:shock: Wow! Great pics. You must be a natural multi-tasker. How do you wheel an XJ, tow a Sammi through the snow, repair signs, cut and move large trees, fix bypasses, and keep an eye on the younguns, all while taking great pictures the whole time. Amazing! 8)
