12- 16 March 2018
Monday 12th
was wet and windy, but Snapper and Mat worked until the weather got too bad in
the early afternoon. Greg B, Trevor and Brendan put down netting and found the
staple gun from Lake St.Clair worked well
enough to make it worthwhile. The weather also drove them out.
On the Tuesday 13th
it was misty most of the day and Greg K joined the track workers as they continued
to progress towards the end of the moor. Adrian and Peter F unpacked the last
of the timber and, after spreading it out, were left with just 2 spare planks.
Adrian managed the staple gun despite it frequently not firing, and almost 100
metres of wire was placed.

It was a more pleasant
day on Wednesday, but some rocky sections slowed the planking work. Snapper,
Mat and Greg were joined by Andy from PWS for the day. Thursday was a return to
wet weather, but work went on and the last bit on the northern end of Windy
Moor completed on a somewhat nicer Friday 16th
A short section of
about 30 metres enclosed by thick bushes will be hardened. This area tends to get muddy and there is
just sufficient timber for the job, which is scheduled for next week when fine
weather is expected to return.
