Hiking to the work area. It was a nice, cool day. The sun came out as we were having lunch - perfect timing!

Cleaning out a drainage nick. We cleaned out a number of them, and made a few new ones, too.

Dropping off the tools on the way back to the barbecue. We met one of the other crews here that was working on the 'Lily Tomlin' Trail.
