Building a new segment of the bottom of the Peninsula Trail to replace a very steep section. At noon, the Rangers barbecued 'burgers and 'dogs for us to enjoy!

After working for about 20 minutes, we've already got a good start at carving out the new trail.

We're building a reroute to bypass the very steep bottom of the Peninsula Trail.

This trail will loop around the bottom of the Peninsula Ridge, making it longer and so not nearly as steep.

In some places the cross-slope was about twice as steep as it is here!
