This short little five day hitch was to be an exercise in trail corridor clearing, and given that we are one of two28 week looooonnnngggg term teams here in the GWJeff, food purchasing, base camp. And you cant very well have a crosscut saw team sawing un-certified, un-clear, and walking about all willy-nilly in the Wilderness. So with the anticipation of crosscut training looming over our heads we head into the Ramseys Draft (big W) Wilderness, and emerge five days later with a cleaner ,clearer, more structured path on where we are going, the expectations of our crew leader and the desire to get to some big old-timie saws.
Bring on the Misery Whips.
