Spanish Fork Peak (aka Maple Mountain peak)

We had a report of a tree down near the top of Spanish Fork peak. We hoped to get above the poor air, but this didn't happen.


After Kyle cut the tree, we were able to get it sliding down the slope and well away from the trail.

I sometimes have a hard time keeping coverage with the GPS unit. This was my solution.

Teet Mountain

While replacing signs in Sheep Creek (Spanish Fork canyon), we decided to check out one of our USFS radio towers at Teet Mountain.

Maple Canyon Eagle Scout project

This bridge was built 1/4 mi. up Maple Canyon and was the joint effort of our crew and an Eagle Scout. It turned out beautifully and I hope it will last for years. Thanks to Kyle for coming in on a day off to assist and thanks to all those who participated in this project.
Another element of the Eagle project was the installation of 4 benches along the trail. Each bench is spaced by 1/4 mile allowing users to gauge their distance, at least for the first mile. Luckily 3 of the bridges happened to be at stream crossings which provide a scenic place to catch a breath.
The final touch of the Eagle project was the replacement of this sign for Spanish Fork Peak.

We returned later to cut some texture into the bridge as a safety precaution.
