Rebuilding Water Crossings – Sam Hill Road

Last month we successfully installed stepping stones on a water crossing, and with what we’ve learned we plan to do similar work on ‘problem’ areas of the White Circle and Green Circle trails. We may again use stones for this, but will be prepared to use available slabs of wood if that can be made to work. We will have a small collection of pry-bars and levers with us, but please bring any tool you have which could be helpful, along with good work gloves and strong boots. Paul will bring his chainsaw. Please meet us at the Sam Hill Entrance to Westwoods. [est 2-1/2 – 3 hours]

Heavy rain will usually cancel any of these work parties, so if you have questions about the schedule, please feel free to contact me stewardship@guilfordlandtrust.org or Paul Proulx pauljproulx@comcast.net on the morning of each event. We’ll also announce cancellations or schedule changes by email, so it’s a good idea to check your mail before you leave the house. Paul also carries his cell phone (203-687-7756) on these events, so if you’re late and want people to wait, give him a call.
