This was a joint work project with the Sierra Club's Santa Monica Mountains Task Force Trail Crew. The Sierra Club worked up the trail from the walk-in campground while the Trails Council worked down from the fire road. Arrive at Trippet Ranch parking lot (Topanga State Park). Sign-in and shuttle up the fire road to the trailhead. Distribute tools, discuss logistics, and provide tool safety talk. A crew of eleven proceeded down the trail with (2) hedge trimmers to about midway where the brush became thick. They cleared brush along the trail while several supporters raked up and removed the cuttings. The remainder of the group performed brushing, tread repair, and removal of loose rocks along the way. [Note: The entire Musch Trail is now cleared from top to bottom]. 8 volunteers x 6 hours = 48 hours (see sign-in sheet). 3 volunteers x 2.5 hours = 7.5 hours 2 Hours for scouting the trail Total volunteers = 11. Total hours = 57.5 hours Total distance maintained = 2000 feet.
