Comments
Comments: We were part of the Randolph Mountain's Club's volunteer workday that was called because of the damaged caused by the tropical storm on Halloween. There were 4 chainsaw operators and each was paired with two volunteers and sent off on different routes. A lot of blow downs were removed all over the RMC trail systems on Saturday.
