Diamond Arrow Trail Flagged

In case you missed it, we have flagged a preliminary route of the Diamond Arrow Trail. From the BONC list:

"An update to the Diamond Arrow Trail project: yesterday, Bill Haire, John Rapphahn of the BLM and myself finished flagging a preliminary route for the entire trail. This was the result of five scouting expeditions by Bill, others and myself over the past few years as we sought out an optimal route for this new trail. I think the preliminary route is very good and will provide an excellent multi-use trail experience for everyone, including the kids at the Diamond Arrow camp.

Next, the BLM will file environmental docs and have a biologist/archeologist/experts survey the route and sign off. We also will work with the Diamond Arrows Conference Center to secure an easement across their property; they have already indicated their willingness to do this. It is my hope that we can begin turning dirt on this trail this winter!
