Hi everyone! The field season has finally wrapped up for the year (with the exception of some burning some accumulated piles of brush once we get snow cover...stay tuned for that!) so I have been posting less often and getting some much needed time in the office to work on record keeping, maps, and other projects. I did want to follow up on a few stories from this busy summer though. First, here's a shot of the cleared view on the top of Sunset Hill on the Hay Reservation. It's not the greatest photo since my phone was running out of battery and I only got in one shot before it died. The view is even better from a little further up the slope. So, even though we couldn't see anything for the socked-in fog on the Hay Reservation workday, we managed to improve the vista significantly. Nice work everyone!
We also recently held a little dedication ceremony at the new Kennelly Forest bridge for those of you who worked on that this past summer. A small brass plaque was installed, and we had a toast to the completion of this project, which took over 300 hours of volunteer labor to accomplish. I'm happy to report that the bridge held up well even with all of us standing on it at the same time! Cheers, everyone, and happy Thanksgiving to you all :)
