At our Saturday Stewardship Work Day in October, we will be focusing on trail maintenance involving waterbar and rolling dip cleanout. Water management is the most important part of keeping trails stable and usable. Part of controlling water is installing water diversion structures like water bars and rolling dips. These structures require periodic maintenance of removing silt and organics that have built up over the summer and fall. Today we will be maintaining these important structures to make sure trails are in good condition going into winter.
