Next Time You Ride Crockett Hills, Thank Scouting Troop 284!
Earlier this month, a pack (geddit?) of Scouts from Troop 284 in Lafayette joined Advocacy Director Scott Bartlebaugh and other BTCEB trail work experts at one of our favorite places, Crockett Hills Regional Park. Our mission – which of course we chose to accept – was to keep working to repair and restore this gem to its pre-winter glory.
We completed the rock hardening at the top of the Sugar City trail, moved the remaining rock into the right place for future work, improved some drains, and buffed out some rills and ruts. Doing all of that was a lot more effort than writing about it.
