We started off Hitch 10 with the completion of a 50 ft turnpike on the Russel Creek Trail No. 3. We added 25 ft to the existing turnpike, which had been installed only a couple of weeks earlier! The turnpikes are a great way to fix the extreme rutting and flooding on the popular trail just outside of Cooke City, MT. We also built an approach ramp to a wooden walkway further up the trail. The last two days were spent brushing and clearing the trail to multiple mountain lakes off the Russel Creek Trail!
