The Forest Service has been working this week

3/14/09 – The Forest Service has been working this week to haul heavy planks deep into the wilderness. They are using dog teams to deliver the planks to portages that need boardwalks to protect wet sections of trail. The dog team is contracted from a local musher who was busy on the famous Iditarod trail at time last year. The musher told me that she had delivered a load of planks to the portage between Kelly and Jack Lakes. – Bill
