July Work Trip and Konnarock Report
by John Hartpence
We had 25 members at the July work trip. The weather was very cooperative
and we got a lot done.
- Weed-eated and cleared the trail from VA 670 to VA 601
- Weed-eated from Va. 601 to the powerline.
- Cut 5 blowdowns from Va. 86 to Chatfield shelter.
- Sidehilled 200 feet of trail in the upper meadow behind Cumbo's (near I-81).
- Broke up the NEW BEAVER DAM under the new bridge behind CUMBO'S.
- Weed-eated Davis Path.
- Weed-eated Va. 610-corridor.
- Weed-eated O'Lystery past Knot Maul Shelter to Lynn Camp bridge.
- Lopped and cleared the trail to Chestnut Knob.
- Cut blowdowns and weed-eated Garden Mountain.
Konnarock finished 2 weeks of work on the relo at the Kegley Property.
I wish we could have had more people working with Konnarock, but with Radford
99 and the work weekend, that couldn't be helped. Thanks to all the PATH
members that worked with Konnarock.
Happy Trails,
