This was a specially scheduled trail maintenance event to address storm damage to the BBT-Saddle Creek Trail in Malibu Creek State Park. A trail assessment was conducted previously to assess the scope of the problem area and determine the most effective solution. Today’s work addressed a section of trail with one very large washout and other poor drainage problems. The very large washout was 20.5’ long, varying 3’ to 7’ wide and varying 3’ to 6’ deep. This made the trail impassable and trail users have been diverting upslope to get around the hole, creating a very dangerous situation. Today we had nine SMMTC volunteers and the State Parks Trail crew consisting of Trail Coordinator Jason Finley and three others, for a total crew of 13. Met at the BBT trail head on Stunt Road. Conducted event briefings and safety and tool talks. Hiked approximately 1.5 miles toward Piuma Road to the work site. The work was totally tread work. The repair work consisted of constructing a retaining wall approximately 6’ high, backfilling with rock and a very large amount of soil. The wall and fill materials were mostly extracted from a trailside berm above the washout. The portion of trail where the berm was removed was carefully groomed to provide an out sloop, thereby improving the drainage. In the process many feet of trenches were filled to improve the tread. Completed work and returned to the meeting place. Completed the day’s event. Total SMMTC volunteer hours: 9 Volunteers x 6 hours = 54 hours Feet of trail maintained: 300
