TODAY IS THE 100TH BIRTHDAY OF THE INYO FOREST, Next weekend we will have a National trails day event at the Portal and this is the 15th years of NTD started by American Hiking Society. Event starts at 9 AM some trail work a clean-up and some sitting around telling hiking stories . Thanks Doug

Hi Doug,

Betsy and I finally get a chance to come work the NTD. The trail work sounds hard but the stories should be fun. Do we need to bring any tools? Looking forward to seeing the Thompson's and the Portal crew. We're driving up Thursday after work (in the traffic) and will be at the Portals for breakfast on Friday.

See you then!!

P.S. Lets talk about Olancha.

Great to meet all at the trail clean up.

Jack and Betsy good luck on the JMT!

Doug, you are one busy guy! You made time to help everyone feel a part of the project and appreciated. You are one in a million.
We are glad we stopped by.
Fun day. Super lunch, best french fries, ever!

We explored the tuttle creek drainage Sunday. Pretty canyon. That water is cold.
We put the 100 yr anniversery water bottles to good use.

Hope to see you all soon.
