A beautiful fall day

LPLR 21-6 02

Friday 11/5/2021
Nine eager volunteers out today

LPLR 21-6 03

There is a lot of crib-wall to be built,
so we will need a lot of big rocks

LPLR 21-6 04

Marion puts a sling around another really big rock

LPLR 21-6 05

Slowly maneuvering this big rock
down a 40 degree slope

LPLR 21-6 06

Bob works to keep the rock from sliding any further

LPLR 21-6 07

Another big rock added to the rock pile

LPLR 21-6 08

Getting another very big rock ready for the high-line

LPLR 21-6 09

As you can see from this photo,
it‘s a really steep hillside

LPLR 21-6 010

Waiting for a few hikers to pass

LPLR 21-6 012

Almost at the end of our belay with this one

LPLR 21-6 013

Another big rock getting ready to go for a ride

LPLR 21-6 015

More big rocks building a crib-wall

LPLR 21-6 016

And another big rock goes for a ride

LPLR 21-6 018

It‘s time to move the ladder so it‘s all hands on deck

LPLR 21-6 019 (1)

Lunch time, lunch time, to take a little break

LPLR 21-6 019b

What‘s this?
yes it‘s Pizza from some trail angels

LPLR 21-6 019c

Yum yum everyone enjoyed the treat

LPLR 21-6 020

It‘s another beautiful day, so let‘s build some trail

LPLR 21-6 021

Jeff tells his pizza story

LPLR 21-6 022

It‘s a short beautiful walk to our worksite

LPLR 21-6 023

Footings are dug before any rock is placed

LPLR 21-6 025

To move big rocks we need a griphoist operator,
right now Lissa has it under control

LPLR 21-6 027

Veronica keeps a tight grip on the belay

LPLR 21-6 029

With help from the high-line, this step is set into place

LPLR 21-6 031

Now this is the biggest rock of the day

LPLR 21-6 032

This rock will definitely keep any crib-wall in place

LPLR 21-6 033

For safety reasons, all work stops while hikers pass

LPLR 21-6 034

Because this is a very active trail,
we stop work often to keep crew and hikers safe

LPLR 21-6 035

The biggest rock of the day has made it to the trail

LPLR 21-6 036

With slings in place, it‘s ready to go for a ride

LPLR 21-6 037

Russ and Jeff guide this big boy into place

LPLR 21-6 038

I think we‘ve got it, ok slack hoist

LPLR 21-6 039

Marty takes a rest after operating the griphoist

LPLR 21-6 040

Moving up the hill and starting the next crib-wall

LPLR 21-6 041

Preparing a space for the next big rock

LPLR 21-6 042

Putting in a new step next to the crib-wall
