More Signage Needed!!!!


More Signage to Keep You on Track

For years I have been hearing stories about being confused on the trails. Jack White has hand carved and erected 60 or more signs and even with all this direction we have people still going astray on occassion. (yes, Graham and sometimes they are from Burgeo). So with Jack's help we are going to try and put up a few more signs to help the orientationally challenged. Tomorrow we hope to erect sign posts at Grand Central and at the intersection below the pentagon. The first signs to be erected will be "Oliver's Twist" ... no you fool, not because the name Oliver is on it; but because people can't find that loop. It's a relatively new trail so we need more signs so people can find it. We will also put up a few more Raven's Ridge signs because our maps have Raven's Ridge on them and the trails will then correspond with the maps. More signs with "distance to chalet" wil be put up at intersections so that skiers who are on their last bag of oats may choose the shortest route to the couch at the chalet. If you have any suggestion on signs please send them along. Master Jack White is the master carver, while assorted lollygaggers hanging around the chalet will assist by laying out of lettering.
