[at-l] Pittsburgh's Laurel Gorge Work Crew Weekend

["David Hicks" <daveh@usit.net>]

Those of you who missed Pittsburgh's Laurel Gorge Work Crew weekend missed a
great outing.

Bob Peoples, owner of Kincora Hostel, was a great host and crew leaded.
Pittsy was Pittsy.  A number of thru's stopped to join us in the work.

I don't know how Bob did it.  He provided a full range of Five-Star Hostel
services to a stream of hikers and still had time for us.

And we did a good bit of work -- flatten and bracing a sidehill section of
trail that has deteriorated over the years.  This required cutting and
debarking logs, making little rocks out of big rock,  and hauling dirt,
gravel, and rocks (of all sizes) to fill in the new treadway.

I'm not posting names except Pittsy and Bob, as I didn't ask the others, but
Pittsy may have and have already posted them.  I had over 400 messages
waiting -- most are still unread.
