On May 22, 13 trailbuilder volunteers turned out at Little Mountain in the morning rain to work on Fred's Trail. As the day progressed they turned an old, eroded, steep, scramble route into a still challenging, safer, more sustainable trail.

A strong and skilled group worked on steep and slippery terrain building crib and fill steps, stone steps and improving the dirt tread.

It's an impressive construction and in places even beautiful as stones were fit into the ground, one with its own fern garden intact.
