Mission Possible at Castle/Heart Lakes

The mission yesterday, and we chose to accept it, was to finish blocking many of the alternate user trails to Heart Lake. So Bryson cut dead trees and the rest of us carried branches and logs to obstruct the many little pathways that hikers deviate into as they ascend or descend on this very popular trail. Thanks to new volunteers Marianne and Sarah, and repeaters Mark, Christine, Keith, David, Hank, Isaiah, and John T. 
Props to Bryson for carrying his chainsaw and protective gear up the hill (and doing all the sweaty chainsaw work) so yours truly could have an easy day (a geezer day). And thanks to USFS staff Taylor and Cory for directing this little orchestra and doing more than their share of the grunt work.
