Time to set a date for the first volunteer day.
We have 5 chainsaws that I know of...and we need to get every one of them in use. We also need 2 swampers for each saw. A swamper is someone that moves the stuff that has been cut.
We have an approximate 4.2 mile loop that we are starting on, and about half of it is filled with dense and woody vegetation. Without a $60,000 Flailmower, which are so dangerous to run no one will rent one, we must use chainsaws and an army of swampers.
This will take several days to accomplish and we should get started ASAP if we want a clear corridor for a crew to build thru in September.
It is feasible if we have the corridor cleared to have this loop built by the end of October with a September tread construction start and taking the first two weeks of October off for the start of (rifle) hunting season.
Who's in?
