Please let me know by email if you plan to join us this coming Saturday on the Alcoa Section just
south of the Smokies. Remember, it will be required that all workers wear a helmet and safety
glasses on all BMTA work trips. Gloves are highly recommended as well. Let's get everyone
home safe and sound. The weather looks great for Saturday. Snakes might be out sunning on
this beautiful day, so wear gators if you have them and keep an eye on the trail ahead of you.

TN/NC BMTA WORK TRIP
Saturday, April 25, 2009


BMT Section 19c - US 129 at Deals Gap to Topoca Trailhead at the Little Tennessee River. This
5.1 mile section of trail needs much maintenance, but thankfully about half of it is on a gravel road
through the Alcoa property and won't need any maintenance.

MEETING LOCATION: We will meet at US 129 crossing down in the Cheoah Dam Upper Parking
Lot by the Little Tennessee River at 9AM.

LEADER: Rick Harris, 423-253-6358 (home); 513-260-1184 (cell), HarrisRi@aol.com. Please notify
Rick in advance of the work trip of your plans to come and what tools you will be bringing. The
section maintainers are Dick and Margaret Evans.

BRING: We need gas powered brush cutters as well. Also, loppers and swing blades can be
used. We will need to do some side hilling, thus we will be bring Pulaskis and fire rakes. Dick
Evans and Rick Harris plan to scout out the trail in advance to further determine what the needs
are. Bring gloves and safety glasses and a helmet if you have one. We have a few helmets to
loan out. Bring lunch and water.
