 | Comments: |
Lot was half full when we arrived -- vehicles from participants in a trailwork workshop. As a by-product of the workshop, some new (much-needed) drainage ditches have been dug in wet/marshy spots on Goose Pond Snowmobile Trail (Orange Trail) -- thank you to those involved with doing this. |
