Friends,
Below are the details for the June, July and August BMTA-GA worktrips. Mark your
calenders! These notices will be posted on the web in the usual spot:

Our June 28 trip is in the Cohutta Wilderness from the Jacks River Trail to the Spanish
Oak Gap, Section 10b. This beautiful section has long been maintained by Mike
Christison. Mike has had some tough health problems lately, but is now on the mend.
We want to get this section in good shape for Mike's return to duty.
We'll take a group picture and send it to Mike. Join us for We like Mike Workday!
Also notice that both the July and the August worktrip are on the THIRD Saturday, not the
customary fourth Saturday

June 28- Georgia Work Trip. We will work on Section 10b in the Cohutta Wilderness.
It's a beautiful section, from the crossing of Jacks River Trail to the Spanish Oak Gap
(aka the intersection with the Hemptop Trail.) Meet at the Village Restaurant in Blue
Ridge at 8:00 AM. Or meet at the trailhead, Dally Gap on FS 22 at 9:40am. We will walk
down the Jacks River Trail to hit the BMT, then work up toward Spanish Oak Gap, then
walk back to Dally via Hemptop Trail. Mostly swingblade work, but refreshing some
sidehilling. FYI, it is takes close to an hour to drive from Blue Ridge to Dally Gap.
Trip leader is Tom Keene, tkeene@kennesaw.edu or 770-422-4838 or, the night before
only, 770-722-6016).
July 19 [Note it's the 3rd Sat.] - Georgia Work Trip: Joint trip with the Forest Service and
Cohutta Wilderness Area volunteers. On Section Ten (Section Eleven in Homan's guide)
from Spanish Oak Gap to Hemp Top Mountain. We'll be mostly over 3000' and, we trust,
enjoying those famous "ridgeline breezes." Mostly swingblade work. We meet at the
Village Restaurant in Blue Ridge at 7:15AM. Note the time; it's 45 minutes earlier than
usual. We must depart the restaurant at 8:00 AM sharp to keep our rendezvous with the
Forest Service group. Trailhead meeting at Dally Gap at 8:50 AM. Trip leaders are Bill
Ross, wross45@hotmail.com, or 404-234-6488, and Tom Keene, tkeene@kennesaw.edu,

August 16 [ It's the 3rd Sat.] - Georgia Worktrip. Swingblade work on Section 3
(probably). We will mostly battle mid-summer brambles, perhaps breaking into
separate crews based on reported trouble spots. Meet at the Village Restaurant in
Blue Ridge at 8:00 AM. No trail head meeting scheduled in case the trip shifts. Call
for update Aug. 10 or after. Trip leaders are George Owen owenga@ellijay.com, or
