Bridges Just Happen ... Not!!!

Earl says: "Don, any fish in that brook?"
Don replies: "Sure are...let's cover 'em up and keep 'em safe 'til the season opens."
A job well done.
Here comes that big machine again.
A job well done.
After reviewing 99 emails upon my return from Maine, I thought it worthy
to forward these photos taken by Dan Rumbolt. Often we ski the trails
at Whaleback and think that things like bridges "just happen" . Let me
tell ya, without bridges it would be impossible to get around the ski
park. Members of the Tool Box Gang pay their annual fees like everyone
elese and then when help is needed, they fire up their snowmobiles and
powersaws and head out to get the job done. These photos were taken at
the base of Deadly Descent early last week when they gathered together
to replace a bridge that had been swept away in a flood last fall. I
was not present for the work party, but from the photo it looks like the
devotees included Dave King, Earl Hunt, Don Cormier, Howard Skinner,
Dan Rumbolt, Carter Powers and Kenny Young. They also went into the
"cut and slash" mode near Hayes Hump where they widened the trail and
prepared it for the BR-250. Big thank you to the diligent gang for their
generous work on behalf of the membership. Where would we be without
volunteers?

Good to be back,
Graham

PS Apparently once Don Cormier got down in the brook it was hard to get
him out as he wanted to go trouting ... what are we going to do with
him?
