Trails - Echo Basin logout and drainage
Echo Basin has old-growth Alaska Yellow Cedar scattered along the trail and then opens into a wet meadow surrounded by basin headwalls with a colorful array of wildflowers. The boardwalk is currently closed, yet the trail needs to be maintained so that visitors can enjoy the cedars and flowers following a "Y" instead of a lollipop until the boardwalks can be replaced.
However, wind and rain has done a lot of damage recently and the trail needs a lot of help. For this outing we will be focused on (1) logout and (2) repairing water bars and clearing drains. There is a need for 1 B-sawyer team and 1-2 drainage teams.
The trail is steep at times and rocky in washed-out areas.
No experience is necessary.
We will meet at the Hackleman Old Growth Grove parking lot at 9:00 am and carpool/caravan to the trailhead. Bring usual PPE (hard hat, glasses, gloves, boots, etc), loppers and hand saws (if you have them), and a day pack with food and water. Additional instructions will be sent the day before the event to participants that have signed up.
