Well, after a couple of years using the Ozark Trail, I finally got around to helping to build the Ozark Trail on the Courtois Section. (It's pronounced Code-Away.) What a tremendous experience. The people were great to work with, and great to hang out with after the work was done for the day. And the food, thanks to Jeff The Chef, really hit the spot. Nothing like a couple burgers and a few brats to make the day complete.
The group included some tremendously hard workers on the rock-wall team, guys I couldn't even begin to keep up with energy-wise, including Scotty from the USFS, Russ, Gabe, Charles and others. Good work, guys.
No injuries, either, which is good. Couple close calls, though - the hill was about a 25% grade, and a few of the boulders got away from us.
What a great bunch of folks to hang out with. I'm looking forward to the next event.
