The 4-Comer’s Snowmobile Club helped in clearing and enhancing a portion of the Bald Mountain Trail on Aug. 5. Fourteen members met at Cutsforth Park at 8 a.m. Sunday to saw out downed timber and grub portions of the trail that needed improvement. It was a hot day for this grueling work, which included falling and bucking trees, and leveling portions of the trail to maintain a good tread. Work wasn’t completed till around 3:30 in the afternoon. In all, about two miles of trail was completed. a The group split into three crews, | one of which began at the park and worked up Willow Creek, another that worked from the middle portion I toward the park, and the third which worked from the top of Coal Mine Hill to the middle section. Other pieces of the trail, on the east side of Willow Creek, were cleared and grubbed by this year’s Youth Con- Heppner Elks 358* 676-9181 "Where Friends M eet" 142 N. Heppner Chamber of Commerce last week. Speaking at the weekly chamber luncheon, Pearson said the company will spend about $600,000 on im provements to the mill this year, an amount he said would have been higher had the lumber market not ex perienced a recent slump. The company added two new edgers last year at a cost of $700,000. “ They are more efficient and will give us a better product,” Pearson said. He said both the domestic and ex port lumber market has been down recently but expects the price to come back by the end of the year. Kinzua has purchased nine out of the last 10 sales bid on in the past 18 months, and the only one lost was 25 miles from town on Coalmine. Pearson said some west side sawmills have been to Eastern Oregon to bid on timber sales. He said Kinzua is looking at several diversification projects but so far nothing is concrete. 4-Corners snowmobile club clears Bald Mountain trail Forrest Burkenbine, Fire Chief f parade route.

The Bald Mountain Trail is a new trail being constructed this year by the U.S. Forest Service and is for foot and horse traffic. This loop trail can be reached from Cutsforth Park, or from the top of Coal Mine Hill, just Northwest of Herren Meadow, where a parking area is scheduled to be constructed this fall. In winter, the portion from the park to the park ing area will be open for snowmobile use. This is to allow access to other areas of the district for this winter activity. From the parking area, the Bald Mountain Trail uses old logg ing roads to access Gibson Cave, then on to the top of Little Bald Mountain. From here the trail heads to the saddle between Big and Little Bald Mountains, and the northwest back to the park. Signs need to be installed at the trailhead and at junc tions with other roads and trails; also, more trail maintenance is need ed on portions. There are some ups and downs on the trail, so be sure you have some water along and are wearing proper footwear.
