Friends,

We will work beautiful Section Eight on Saturday, mostly swingblade
work, from Fowler Mountain to Flat Top Mountain. Because it's a long
walk in to Fowler, we are going to try a split crew with a group of
long-walkers (led by Eric Eaves) leaving 30 minutes ahead of the main
group, walking in to Fowlers from Dyer Gap/Flat Top and then working
back toward Dyer. They will meet a second group working from Flat Top
south somewhere around Double Hogpen. The details you will need to be
part of either crew are below. I hope you will join us. Those famous
"cool ridge line breezes" are not to be missed!

Rendezvous details:

Eric's Long Walkers:
7:30am - Eric's Long-Walkers will meet at the East Ellijay Waffle King
(Not Blue Ridge) for breakfast. To depart for the trailhead (Dyer Gap)
about 30 minutes later.
9:00am - Eric's crew meets at Dyer Gap trailhead to carpool in
vehicles with ample clearance for the ride up to Flat Top, From which
they walk straight to Fowler Mountain and then work back.

Main Crew (wTom Keene):
8:00am - Meet as per prior announcements at East Ellijay Waffle King
(Not Blue Ridge). Depart ca. 30 minutes later for Dyer Gap.
9:30am - Main crew meets at Dyer Gap trailhead to carpool in vehicles
with ample clearance for the ride up to Flat Top, This group walks up to
Flat Top and works south.

I hope a day in the woods sounds as good to you as it does to me. Join
us!

Be sure to bring work gloves, water, lunch and raingear. We provide
the tools.
