Another "Do good" opportunity... - 23/03/04 06:59 PM

This is from Dave who runs the Xterra triathalon we help with. we should look at getting some trucks out there.

-------------------------------------------------
Hi there everyone...

We run a little race out at the Tonto National Forest that utilizes the "rolls" area just north of Butcher Jones Cove...

The Forest Service has asked for a little help in the off highway vehicle area. It seems that there are many vehicles that have created these illegal roads that need fencing and some added deterrents to remove the vehicular access.

I have planned 2 outings with Ranger Daniel Bray from the Forest Service to help accommodate this request.

The Location:
Butcher Jones Cove
Saguaro Lake

The Dates:
Sunday, March 28th @ 7:00am
Saturday, April 17th @ 7:00am

We should be able to complete the project on March 28th, and follow-up (and possibly redo this project if necessary) on April 17th.

DCB Extreme Adventures will provide water, refreshments and some food...

Please RSVP as soon as you can. It would be helpful if there were some of the 4X4 folks to help with winching and pulling boulders onto the trail.

IF you know of anyone looking for a little community service, or trail maintenance time, please forward this on...

Thank you
David Benjes

Don't know- But it's a cool area and I'd rather see it a little "limited" than SHUT DOWN-

I don't know about the 28th for me personally, but I'd probably be down for the 17th.

Sounds like fun, yanking on stuff and eating. You can count me in. I've got some painting to do that I will hopefully be done with. Does anyone from the club still have a winch? I'll send this over to swanky to see if they want to get involved.

Johnny was the last person with a winch.

I already posted it over on N4W

I hope those 'builders' are strong enough to hold the weight of an SUV. [LOL]
