Thank you to our front country crew for their work on the Horsethief and Blaine Basin Trails this summer!
Thank you to all who contributed to a very successful workday! Much was accomplished. Special thanks to Mountain Market in Ridgway and all who contributed to our lunch. Thank you to Jen and Rick at City of Ouray, Cimarron Coffee, The Goods, and Camp Bell's Cajun for advertising our event, and thanks to the US Forest Service for help on the trail. Most of all thank you to the workers who came out and gave their time and energy to work on our local trails! What a perfect day!!
