Rain was in the forecast and that's what we got. Now you would figure that on a rainy day most people would stay indoors. Well we had 8 members show up and we had our first tree to clear off a trail in about 6 months. There was a 2ft Madrone down on the trail off of the Sequoia Group Campground.

Most of us were ready for the rain and were dry. Others (Norm) was a bit more wet. Well we were out rain or shine and although a short day it was rewarding. Fran brought cookies and the store flagged Mike down and gave us Snicker bar treats (see the perks of the crew). I would like to thank Dale P., Mike, Janie, Bill, Francis, Norm, and Fran who put in 46 hours on a much needed rainy day.
See you on the trails
