West Fork of the Brownlee
Trail #266
The West Brownlee Creek project brings closure to the 2012 season of work projects for the SBBCHI and a sad farewell to a valuable partner, Mike Mullin, Payette National Forest West Zone Recreation contact. Mike has accepted a transfer to Lincoln Montana: Lincoln is very close to my wifes family and I love the area due to its proximity to the Bob Marshall wilderness complex so I couldnt resist applying when a position came open. We will miss Mikes enthusiasm and dedication to partnering with our Chapters mission of keeping Americas trails open. However, we are happy for Mike and his family and look forward to making contact with the new PNF liaison, Jascha Zeitlin.
Its time to hit the trail and leave the sad news behind! Mike made arrangements to send Ryan, one of his crew, to assist us with the trail work on Saturday, September 22nd. Ryan would meet us at the trailhead by 9:00 AM. Its a good thing too otherwise, I would have gone the wrong direction at the creek and cleared the wrong trail! I really need to look into doing something about my navigational skills..or lack of.
