Hello Readers in Cyber-space: This weeks Waterway Work Trip Leader Kevin Large coming to you. We had a great week, in all aspects; weather, interns, and volunteers. Out at the buttermilk falls site the other interns and I worked along side 9 great volunteers to remove an old log ladder stair case, install a new 16-foot section of bog bridging, installing a stone staircase and stepping stones through wet areas in the portage trail as well as brushing in the old trail and resigning the new trial. Our crew dined on a variety of foods from tortellini on Friday night to blueberry chocolate chip pancakes on Sunday morning. Many of us paddled to the work site from our camp along the Raquette River on Saturday and on Sunday after the work was done we enjoyed an afternoon paddle along the Inlet of Long Lake. The weekend could not have been better!
Remember to get out there and keep your paddle wet,

Have you ever seen a stone staircase like this?
