After 1000s of volunteer hours the Eagle Creak Trail is open, the damage from December storms repaired.

It's log out season and the hiking groups are full of pictures of volunteers with the PCTA, PNTA, WTA, and OTK, doing hard labor to clear trails.

I just learned about the Salmonberry Trail, an effort to connect Banks, OR to the coast via 82-mile trail. 21,000 volunteer hours so far.

USFS just fully opened FS23 between Trout Lake and Randall for the first time in years.

Repairs to the 2023 slide that damaged SR504 in the Mt St Helens National Monument started a couple days ago.
