Red trail crew

Saturday, after sleeping in quiet Camp Oest, we showed up at the parking lot to find out we were the sole crew for Trees and Trails day. Ranger Dave and Mr. Bill, Camp Saffran director, thanked us, then we headed off with Chris and Phil to the COPE course.

We spent the morning clearing trees from the Red Trail, either felled by wind or cut down due to illness. One spot down the hill from the COPE entrance used most of our time. The new Scouts got to use bow saw and ax on their first campng trip as Troop 350 members.

This afternoon we will work at Oest.
