This was a trail evaluation survey and scouting effort in preparation for an upcoming maintenance project scheduled for September 3rd. A crew of 2 met at the Reagan Ranch parking area off of Cornell Drive at 7:30 am and drove in to the State Park Maintenance Area near the Yearling Trailhead. We walked the Yearling Trail to the Deer Leg Trail. We turned onto the Deer Leg Trail and proceeded to the connector trail and to the Yearling Trail. We walked a portion of the connector trail and then returned back on the Deer Leg Trail to the junction with the Lake Vista Trail. We continued along the Lake Vista Trail to the overlook area on the ridgeline. We then returned back down the Lake Vista Trail and back to the cars and finished at 9 am. Both trails need extensive weed whacking, brush cutting, and tread repair. Highest priority is a few sections along the Lake Vista trail which are eroding away on the down slope side to do overgrown vegetation on the up slope side forcing users off the trail. Crew size: 2 Total Hours worked: 3 hours total (2 volunteers 1.5 hours each) Total feet of trail evaluated: 8976 feet and 1.7 miles (0.6 miles on Deer Leg and 1.1 miles on Lake Vista). Crew Members: John Kross and Greg Sweel
