Like our October W n’W outing\, we’ll be putting up our new plastic blazes up\, this time concentrating on Yellow (Circle and Square): perhaps the most interesting trail in the network. It’s a great opportunity for young kids to help us find all the existing and faded blazes and for everyone else to practice their skills with a hammer. As with all our walk’n work parties\, this will all be work with hand tools … no chainsaws or heavy equipment are allowed. You’re welcome to join us for just the walk\, but if you want to help blaze\, a small tool belt with places for nails\, a hammer and a stockpile of blazes is recommended. Please meet us at the Peddlers Road trail entrance @ 10AM. [est 1-1/2 – 2 hours] \nRain or significant snow 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.

We’ve re-routed this trail to avoid these wetlands completely and now plan to use these structures to replace two which are in poor condition and fall short of the WWTC’s standards for bridge construction and placement. We need at least six strong volunteers to muscle these out of the woods (about 225ft) and then we’ll drive them to the Trail Head at the Chestnut Grove cul-de-sac\, where we’ll walk them in to the new bridge site (about 150ft). Once there\, we’ll need to move rocks to make substantial abutments to support the bridges at least 4 inches from the water surface. If you’d like to help\, warm clothes\, gloves and boots are really all that’s needed. If you have some rock moving bars or picks\, please bring them along too. We’ll have the vehicle and the baseball bats well need to support the bridges while being walked along the trails. We’ll meet at the Chestnut Grove cul-de-sac\, where there’s plenty of parking\, and walk to the bridge site from there.
