Short Description of Activity
Backpack to monitor campsites along McIntyre Trail and in Shipman Park in the Rawah Wilderness, using GPS and FS protocol. Make and send report to Kevin Cannon
Reflection/Evaluation
We monitored all the sites we could find. We noticed that several sites had not been used in some time. We talked with a horseman about his lost horses and showed him on a map where we had seen them. He was later able to recover them. We also packed out the saw he had dropped and returned it to his trailer. We packed out about 4 pounds of trash.
