Once deer season is over after Jan 11th, we can be on the Rausch property both Saturdays and Sundays. Anyone interested in helping out with trail work, e-mail me. As long as the weather forecast isn't calling for snow over the weekends, I hope to get there at least one day each weekend. The park is presently covered with about 8-10 inches of snow, but there's plenty of projects underway that can be worked on in the snow. So if anyone's interested in some winter wheeling and getting some exercise, give me a holler. I'll usually know by Friday how the weather's shaping up and which day I'm going. Stock vehicles are welcome.

I'll be heading up as often as I can over the next few months. Would like to continue to get more trails opened up there.

Lynn, I know I haven't been very active in the trail cutting business recently, and unfortunately that's not likely to change until at least mid-February. I enjoy doing that kind of work, so keep us up to date on schedule and I will join you when I can.

I'll be due south at Trails Rd doing a cleanup. Otherwise I'd be there.

Trails road is over crowded this weekend, so I'll be at the Rausch Creek work session. I can definitely be there by 10am.
That's great. The weather might not be too bad, 20 degrees by mid-day, but sunny and very little wind. I just now remembered to bring my chainsaw and gear in for the night so it's not all frozen overnight. Brrrrrrr. I just dropped off my XJ at a buddy's shop to have a SYE and 2 more inches of lift done. So I'll be driving the truck. 
I wanted you guys to see the rollcage, guess it will have to wait til the next time.

Pics are up at http://www.imageevent.com/tealj We widened a trail that was cut open by some SWB guys :wink: and blew open a quad trail that runs across a short ridge with rocks on either side.
Thank you Mike G., Mark S., and Chris W. I told Bruce about our day and he wanted me to convey his thanks to you as well.

Zandi had a great time... she slept the entire ride home! We look forward to more visits to Rausch Creek.
The boulder field will have to wait til the snow melts. I was there today hiking and even the locals haven't driven down the power line or the road. :lol:
We flagged a very long stock trail that runs above and beneath a hillside containing rocks (blue and black levels, with a bit of red here and there!). And these were not just a pile of nuisance rocks. We found a couple places that would make for great camping areas. There's a giant coal pile that has a large plateau with a pile of poser rocks on top of it. The coal pile is slanted at one end to allow for easy access to the top for stock vehicles, while modifieds can take a more vertical route. Will definitely make for excellent group picture taking.

Let's try and pick a date that suits the most people. Feb. 8 is no good for me, but just about any other time is good.
Another club was out there today, we got a good start on the really long stock trail. There's pics at http://www.imageevent.com/tealj
This was a 50/50 day, we cut trail for half a day and then wheeled the afternoon.
