KONGSBERGER SKI CLUB
TRAIL WORK PARTY!

Remember how much fun you had skiing at Cabin Creek last winter?
Please come and help us get those trails ready for next winter!

We’ll barbecue hamburgers and bake a cake for everyone. If you can come, please bring your own drinks and a potluck dish to share.
Ozzie, the trail master, will have trail work projects to assign. Please bring any yard work tools you own, but if you don’t have any, don’t worry—we have some to share, and there will be plenty of important projects that don’t require tools (or gardening expertise!).
Your kids are very welcome, of course, and so are your friends!

Please RSVP to Debbie Kolp at xcskigirl04@yahoo.com or 206-784-6296. We’re looking forward to seeing you!

Goals for 2010: De-veg the “South Loop” and connector between Exit 63 and 62. Continue limbing and de-vegatating the main course. (Berg and Viking loops) De-veg the sides of ‘The Road’ (USFS 4826) and Amabilis (4822), with spurs. Then finish de-vegging the revised Tower Bridge Loop.

USFS has granted us permission to use mechanized equipment on 8 specific locations on the main course. We will need your help to clean up after them. Dates to be determined--should be mid-late summer. Contact us for more info/schedule. Kongsberger Ski Club members are paying for this work. All skiers will benefit from it.

Kongsberger Ski Club has long been considered the lead advocate and steward for the Cabin Creek Sno-Park area. KSC is working with the US Forest Service and Washington State Parks to develop a master plan to keep this area a non-motorized, groomed cross country ski track for beginner through international competitive cross country skiers. Trail construction goals are to bring the trail system up to International Olympic FIS standards with a groomed width of six meters between the drip lines of whole trees. Let us know what you would like to do to help achieve these goals.
