There
were
in
one
school,
there
were.
There
was
one
parent
for
every
three
and
we
so
that
the
parents
really
appreciated
the
program
too.
Anyway.
The
the
students
were
especially
excited
because
this
was
one
of
their
first
post-coveted
field.
Trips
and
the
week
was
really
really
good.
Monday
was
hot,
but
the
weather
was
perfect
for
the
rest
of
the
week.
It
was
it
was
on
thursday.
I
think
it
was
65
degrees
at
11
o'clock
in
the
morning.
That's
perfect!
F

Crpd
park,
superintendent,
matt,
cuba.
Thank
you!
Matt
and
costco
rangers
corey,
prindle,
bruce
pace,
ryan
stead
and
nick
ferrari,
along
with
npf's
ecologist,
seth,
riley
native
american
elder.
I
guess
he
would
be
called
alan
salazar
and
kagan
holland
of
the
chumash
indian
museum,
the
filming
or
taping
was
done
at
the
indian
museum
and
we
really
appreciate
the
support
that
their
staff
gave
us.
F
You
can
find
videos
and
further
information
at
kossif.org
and
I'd
like
to
say
that
the
rangers
made
everything
smooth
and
streamlined,
and
I,
I
think
the
way
to
say
it
is
they're
kind
of
the
glue
that
holds
all
the
program
parts
together
and
I
really
really
appreciate
how
wonderful
they
are.
Matt
will
probably
have
some
more
information
about
that.
F
B
That's
what
I
am
thank
you
so
much
elaine
it
was.
I
mean
it's
just
such
a
testament
that
the
program
had
to
take
that
two-year
hiatus,
but
you
got
it
back
up
and
running
so
beautifully,
and
I
love
the
pictures
here
from
trails
education
days
and
the
video
is
indeed
excellent.
Matt
showed
it
to
me
before
it.
I
think,
went,
went
on
online
and
right
really
quite
wonderful.
F
D
F
Yes,
the
the
letters,
it's
a
letter,
writing
contest
and
we
ask
that
they
write
a
letter
to
someone.
They
met
a
person
or
even
a
horse
or
a
dog
if
they
want
and
the
deadline
for
the
contest
submissions
is
today
or,
and
we're
not
quite
sure
how
many
we're
going
to
get
but
you'll
find
out
next
time
as.
F
D
F
Oh,
I
melanie
ashton,
who's,
a
costa
appointee
runs
the
whole
of
letter
writing
contest
program.
She
she
gathers
the
gathers
the
letters
and
gets
pre-readers
people
to
take
like
one
school
and
pick
the
best
10
of
the
of
the
letters,
and
then
I
think
it's
the
19th,
something
like
that.
She'll
have
eight
people
come
to
her
house
and
do
the
final.
Judging
an.
F
It
is
yeah,
and
so
at
some
point
one
of
you
probably
will
be
asked
to
do
some
pre-reading.
So
it's
good
back
in
the
the
very
first
year
we
did.
This
councilmember
fox
had
provided
his
through
his
community
fund.
He
provided
money
for
us
to
do
some
promotional
stuff,
and
so
we
decided
on
this
contest
and
because
he
was
involved,
we
asked
him
and
maybe
two
other
people
to
do
the
judging,
and
so
we
handed
them
each
all
copies
of
all
the
letters
and
pretty
quickly
decided
that
that
was
not
the
most
efficient.
F
F
B
G
A
E
G
D
G
B
G
Them
it's
just
the
first
time,
they've
actually
been
on
a
dirt
path
and
it's
just
a
whole
new
world
for
them
yeah.
For
them
it's
the
ultimate
of
being
out
in
the
wilderness
and
for
us
we
might
think
it's
a
rather
tame
open
space
area
right,
but
it's
such
an
exposure
to
them
that
kind
of,
hopefully
a
lot
of
them.
G
F
B
B
G
B
All
right,
thank
you,
and
this
is
to
be
clear
minutes
from
the
february
8th
meeting
and
the
special
march
23rd
meeting.
So
if
there
are
no
no
further
comments,
all
in
favor,
please
say
aye,
aye,
aye,
any
nays
or
abstentions,

E
On
it
good
evening,
chairsuke
and
members
of
the
board,
I
have
a
brief
powerpoint
for
this
year's
costac
recruitment.
There
were
four
scheduled
vacancies
to
fill.
The
recruitment
period
was
initiated
on
february
9th
when
the
city
clerk's
department
posted
the
customary
vacancy
notice
and
issued
a
press
release
to
announce
the
recruitment
for
vacancies.
E
Recruitment
information
was
also
posted
on
city
and
costco
social
media
platforms,
published
in
the
city's
city
scene
newsletter
and
shared
via
email
with
existing
costac
members.
The
caneo
open
space
foundation,
costco's
trail

and
adopt
a
trail
program,

canal
valley,
audubon
society.
The

camunidad
kanejo.
We

E
Once
all
applicants
were
interviewed
by
the
interview
committee,
the
results
were
forwarded
to
the
nomination
subcommittee
for
determination
of
nominees
for
members.
The
nomination
subcommittee
recommends
doug
baker,
susan
baucus,
doug,
dutty
and
kyra
krukowski
doug
baker
is
a
current
costac
alternate.
He
participated
in
the
recent
spring
trail
work
day
and
looks
forward
to
participating
in
other
areas
of
costco's
volunteer
core
as
pandemic-related
restrictions.
Abate
susan
is
also
a
current
costac
alternate.
She
recently
did
a
great
job
coordinating
the
hike
leader
schedule
for
trails
education
days.
E
Doug
duty
is
a
mountain
biker
and
equestrian.
He
looks
forward
to
being
a
liaison
for
kostack
to
the
local
equestrian
community,
as
well
as
to
high
school
mountain
bikers
through
his
involvement
with
the
national
interscholastic
cycling.
Association
kira
is
an
active
member
of
kostaq.
She
is
the
trails
education
days.
Contact
for
the
canao,
unified
school
district
participates
in
the
trail
watch
program
and
trailhead
outreach
events
and
has
adopted
the
linmear
trail.
E
G
In
the
background
section
I
had
listed,
a
number
of
organizations
that
received
emails
all
seem
to
be
some
type
of
connection
to
open
space,
whether
it
be
trails
or
autobahn
or
whatever,
but
the
the
group
that
you
mentioned
the
city
clerk
reached
out
to
I'm
just
curious.
How
was
that
group
selected?
Because
I
I
mean
I
don't
know
anything
about
their
backgrounds?
G
E
E
It's
a
little
bit
hard
to
tell,
but
certainly
this
year,
because
the
board
has
asked
about
equestrian
participate
question:
individual
participation
in
cost
stack
in
past
years.
So
this
year
we
made
a
specific
point
of
contacting
the
local
eti
group,
for
example,
corral
37.
I
also
sent
an
email
to
brian
mcqueeny
who's.
A
E
E
E
C
E
E
E
H
E
D
E
We
look
for
people
who
have
a
certain
level
of
familiarity
with
our
open
space.
Not
all
candidates
actually
do
so,
and
people
who
are
active
on
our
trails.
You
know
whether
it's
equestrian
or
mountain
biking
or
hiking,
and
who
have
know
some
about
our
organization
and
also,
ideally,
who
have
already
participated
in
some
of
our
events.
Like
trail
work,
day
and
or
trails
education
days,.
I
H
B
All
right,
thank
you
all
right.
If
no
other
comments
from
the
board,
all
in
favor,
please
say:
aye,
aye,
any
nose
or
abstentions.
Hearing
then
that
slate
is
approved.
Thank
you
and
now
we'll
go
to
the
approval
of
recommended
new
names
for
the
various
indian
cave,
etc,
trails
and
features
and
recommended
name
for
a
currently
unnamed
connector
trail
between
the
wishbone
loop
and
saddle
pass
trail.
E
In
response
to
the
request,
the
koska
board
reaffirmed
the
members
of
the
standing
committee
on
naming
at
our
last
meeting
and
staff
consulted
local
chumash
elder
alan
salazar
material
regarding
chumash,
linguistics
and
vocabulary
from
the
journal
of
california,
anthropology
and
costco
rangers
to
develop
a
list
of
potential
new
names
for
the
subject.
Trails
and
geographic
features.
E
E
The
locations
of
the
trails
and
features
comprising
this
renaming
effort
are
shown
in
this
slide
and
can
be
found
on
page
19
of
your
packet
number
one
shows
the
location
of
the
cave
number
two
is
the
cave.
Trail
number
three
shows
where
the
creek
is
number
four.
Is
the
creek
trail
number
five
shows
where
the
falls
are
located
and
number
six
is
the
connector
trail?
E
E
G
G
E
Well,
the
request
for
trail
renaming
was
received
from
a
member
of
the
community
and
her
request.
The
scope
of
that
was
the
trail
name
and
just
to
make
sure
we
didn't
have
other
trails.
That
also
included
the
word
indian.
We
did
a
search
of
our
trail
names
database
and
double
checked
the
names
of
geographic
features
that
happen
to
be
within
koska's
purview.
G
Well,
I
mean,
if
that's,
if
that's,
if
the
museum
is
representative
of
the
chumash
peoples,
and
they
apparently
are
not
wanting
to
change
the
name
and
to
remove
indian,
it
would
seem
seems
like
that.
We're
kind
of
stepping
beyond
that
to
make
that
move.
If
the
museum
operators
themselves
are
not
in
that
same
position,.
E
J
Yeah
I
mean
the
chumash
museum
is
on
is
part
of
a
concession
agreement
with
canelo
reckon
park
district
and
the
contract
is
between
us
and
the
oakbrook
chumash
indian
corporation.
So
that's
the
name
of
the
actual
non-profit
entity
that
we
have
the
agreement
with.
So
why
and
whether
they
have
an
opinion
about
the
you
know,
indian
in
their
name.
J
G
G
But
is
there
any
data
or
support
to
authenticate
that
I'm
going
to
say
these
particular
sites?
I
know
the
region
and
I
know
we're
in
the
originally
chumash
every
reason,
but
again
kind
of
referring
back
to
the
to
the
naming
policy
which
it
kind
of
talks
about
geographical
areas,
and
rather
just
broad,
and
I
mean
we
could
do
this
for
the
whole.
G
You
know
county
if
we
want
to
I'm
just
looking
for
this
particular
these
sites
was
there
some
direct
connection
to
the
chumash
people,
because
what
I
notice
is
when
you
talk
about
the
naming,
there's
no
other
options
except
for
chumash
names.
I
have
nothing
against
two
match
names,
but
I'm
just
was
wondering
what
what
went
right
to
chumash
as
opposed
to
the
local
history
of
canal
valley
settlers.
You
know
there
seems,
like
there's
lots
of
options
that
there
could
be
out
there.
Okay,
there's
no
discussion
about
what
those
options
were.
E
We
had
ranger
input
as
well,
and
you
know
that's
useful
for
us
to
obtain
also
because
those
folks
are
out
on
the
land
a
lot
and
can
also
and
also
provide
observations
in
terms
of
what
might
be
happening
there.
For
example,
the
indian
creek
trail
becoming
the
two
springs
trail.
That's
because
there
are
two
small
springs
or
seeps
that
contribute
to
the
flow
in
that
channel
in
that
area.
G
So
I
understand
that
I
guess
part
of
part
of
my
concern
is
you
know
we
have
a
I'm
kind
of
a
traditionalist,
and
I
know
the
whole
wildwood
area
was
developed
with
a
certain
theme
in
mind.
The
developers
were
thinking
we're
out
in
the
wild
west.
You
know
we
got
teepees,
we
got
forts.
You
know
this
whole
wild
west
concept,
which
led
to
many
of
the
names
that
are
out
there,
which
are
street
names,
trail
names,
open
space
names
everything's
there.
G
I
can
just
understand
that,
but
if
it
doesn't
and
we're
just
selecting
two
match
names
because
they
were
in
this
region
that
they
will
well
what
about
the
development
of
our
community?
What
about
the
heritage
that
we
had?
That
are,
you
know
the
early
settlers.
You
know
what
why
are
they
not
considered
part
of
this?
If
maybe
there
was
some
connection
there
too.
So
I
don't
see
that
this
was
really
vetted.
G
The
way
that
I
would
like
to
see
it-
and
that's
that's
part
of
my
concern-
is
it
just-
was
just
an
automatic
jump
to
the
chew
mesh.
I
have
nothing
against
too
much.
I
would
we
have
a
rich
heritage
and
legacy
that
you
mess
here,
but
it
just
seems
like
they're.
Some
of
those
steps
that
would
have
led
us
to
the
chumash
I
don't
see
here
was
just
was
like
an
automatic
approach
and
to
me
I'm
kind
of
losing
the
connection
to
the
canal
valley
heritage
in
many
other
aspects.
G
G
B
G
Absolutely
absolutely
right,
I
mean
I
know:
we've
got
like
the
stagecoach
bluff
trail,
which
has
that
you
know
there's
a
connection
to
some
of
the
movies
and
things
like
that.
But
again,
that's
my
concern
is
it's
more
of
a
of
a
maybe
policy
approach
on
how
we
get
to
these
names,
and
I
know
that
chumash
would
always
be
a
viable
option
because
of
the
the
his
history
there,
but
that
we
also
have
a
local
history
and
that's
part
of
my
concern
for
that.
So.
H
Dr
nichols,
I
might
just
add
here
that
the
the
trail
naming
process
that
was
followed
is
costco's
trail
naming
process
the
board
created
the
naming
committee
and
referred
the
the
issue
to
the
naming
committee
and
the
naming
committee,
which
is
comprised
of
board
members
and
a
cost
tech
member
made
the
recommendations
so
I'll.
Just
say
that
for
that
part,
there's
a
police
there's
a
process
for
that
and
it
was
followed.
C
B
C
C
And
I
guess
it
takes
more
than
530
years
to
establish
a
precedent
as
far
as
names
go.
I
noticed
the
cleveland.
Indians
are
still
the
cleveland
indians
and
I
don't
know
if
others
have
retained
that,
but
I
do
agree
with
it.
It
should
be
an
indigenous
name
and
the
indigenous
people
if
they
don't
like
the
name,
indian,
I
I
presume
that's.
C
C
D
D
There
were
a
number
of
suggestions,
most
of
them,
the
three
of
us
were
on
the
committee-
didn't
didn't
weren't
taken
by
them.
If
you
will
and
as
terrasque
has
already
pointed
out,
there
are
only
two
of
these
six
names
here
that
do
have
a
chumash
origin,
the
what
was
called
still
called
indian
cave
note
right
here,
have
no
idea.
If
that
was
a
natural
cave
or
an
artificial
cave.
Calling
just
caves
seemed
a
little,
but
you
know
small
cave
little
cave
sort
of.
D
Has
nice
ring
to
it
the
trail
leading
to
it
little
cave
trail.
That's
that's
pretty
easy,
as
anna
pointed
out
the.
What
was
the
indian
creek
trail?
Two
springs,
which
pointed
out
to
us
by
the
rangers,
certainly
made
made
sense
to
to
call
it
that
and
the
final
two
that
we
did
use
chumash
words
for
this
is
open
space.
You
know
there
are
a
lot
of
features
in
the
city
that
are
named
after
developers
and,
after
you
know,
olsons
and
other
people
who
are
early
early
residents
in
our
city.
D
G
B
H
H
H
The
extraordinary
circumstances
being
omitted
there
from
time
to
time
costco
does
receive
naming
requests
for
trails,
natural
features
and
areas
of
significance.
These
requests
are
often
received
after
the
individual
to
be
honored
has
passed
away.
However,
there
are
other
occasions
when
the
request
for
is
for
an
individual
who
is
still
living
when
such
an
individual
has
made
a
significant
contributions
to
koska
or
the
open
space
resources
under
koska's
stewardship
or
whose
actions
can
otherwise
be
construed
as
extraordinary.
H
It
would
also
create
an
opportunity
to
honor
and
convey
appreciation
to
individuals
for
their
contributions
to
costco
and
the
agency's
open
space
resources,
while
the
individual
is
still
living
when
the
board
finds
that
extraordinary
circumstances
are
present.
If
the
board
supports
the
amendment
of
the
naming
policy
to
these
ends,
staff
recommends
approving
the
enabling
resolution
number
2022-1.
G
the
paragraph
below
numbers,
one
and
two
says
generally
open
space
areas
will
not
be
named
for
living
persons
except
to
recognize
language
or
extraordinary
purposes.
What
what
came
to
my
mind-
and
I
think
even
director
jones
made
reference
to
it
earlier
that
you
know
many
of
our
open
space
areas
have
been.
G
H
G
C
B
D
B
J
Jim
thanks
brian
and
thanks
chairsuke
yeah.
It's
actually
my
pleasure
to
present
this
item
and-
and
I
think
with
the
folks
here
sitting
at
the
dyess.
I
think
one
of
the
things
I
need
to
express
is
you
know
how.
How
is
this
extraordinary
circumstances,
and
I
think
I
think
I'd
have
to
just
say:
hey.
We
should
name
it
after
tex
and
each
one
of
you
would
know
exactly
who
I'm
talking
about
and
exactly
why?
J
J
For
that
reason
I
think
we
have
an
extraordinary
opportunity
to
look
at
what
we
currently
call
rancho
patriarch's
pacific
plan,
19
subpic
sub
area
4,
which
is
a
mouthful
when
you're
trying
to
explain
to
somebody
where
to
meet,
meet
on
a
hike
and
come
up
with
a
better
name.
So
as
canelo
reckon
park
was
working
closely
with
the
city
on
trying
to
do
some
of
those
improvements
funded
by
the
santa
monica
mountains.
J
J
Those
partnerships,
I
think,
are
one
of
the
things
that
set
our
community
apart
from
many
others.
Is
that
open
space
that
that
we
enjoy?
And
if
he
were
here
right
now,
he
would
probably
be
the
first
person
to
say
that
it's
never
one
individual.
That
gets
anything
done
and
he
would
recognize
that
it
always
takes
a
lot
of
people
working
really
hard
at
something.
But
he
in
fact
is
a
person
that
was
at
a
focal
point.
During
really
informative
year.
J
J
B
Thank
you,
jim.
I
will
make
one
minor
correction.
We
actually
didn't
get
the
land
at
the
auction.
The
auction
was
held
on
that
site
and
the
auctioneer
wanted
10
million
dollars
minimum,
and
I
think
we
bid
less
than
four.
I
think
we
had
2.9,
which
is
what
we
had
from
the
city
in
the
park
district
and
the
auctioneer,
that
the
attorney
for
the
the
land
trust
threw
up
his
headset.
B
G
You
know
I
had
the
pleasure
of
working
with
and
for
techs
years
ago,
and
at
that
time
we
were
trying
to
wrap
up
north
ranch
moving
forward
on
lane
ranch,
moving
forward
on
rancho
canelo
and
room
moving
forward
on
dos
viento.
So
I
was
making
these
constant
trips
between
mary,
jane
laz,
phil,
gatch
and
tex
ward,
and
trying
to
coordinate
all
these
activities,
and
I
I
learned
so
much
from
tex
and
most
had
nothing
to
do
with
open
space.
G
It
was
just
on
on
how
how
you
conduct
yourself
and
how
you
work
with
people,
and
he
was
a
true
gentleman
in
both
those
regards
and
very
accomplished
in
in
his
intended
purpose,
but
was
never
one
to
kind
of
push
his
way.
He
just
kind
of
you
know
wanted
to
work
with
people,
so
I
always
appreciated
what
I
learned
from
him
and
it'd
be
my
pleasure
to
support
this.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
bringing
this
forward.
D
Well,
I
too
fully
support
this.
This
recommendation.
I
joined
the
board
after
texas
left,
but
I
knew
him
for
years
and
years
prior
to
that
time
and
I'm
hoping
that
tex
was
not
tuning
in
to
this
broadcast,
because
if
he
was
our
phones
would
be
ringing
off
the
hook
saying
you
can't
do
that.
I
don't
want
that.
D
A
C
C
I
mean
you
could
meet
with
him
and
you
wonder
how
he
got
things
done
because
he
was
you
know
he
didn't
toot
his
own
horn.
He
didn't
you
know
dramatize
anything.
He
just
slowly
did
things
and
I
frankly
hope
we
can
do
more
or
name
something
else
that
is
more
centrally
located
in
thousand
oaks
for
him,
because
I
you
know-
and
I
I
I
don't
want
to
flatter
a
gym
here
too
much,
but
oh
there's
probably
no
danger
of
that
either
he's
about
as
low-key
as
text.
C
C
C
You
know
reckon
park
district
in
the
country
than
than
crpd,
and
so
my
lingering
thought
is
that
I
think
we
ought
to
do
something
more
in
his
honor,
whatever
the
appropriate
time
is,
if
I'm,
if
I'm
still
around,
to
make
his
name
more
prominent
as
we
did
with
alex
fiore,
I
think
was
very
appropriate
for
alex
and
I
think
would
be
just
as
appropriate
and
even
more
so
with
the
text.
Thank
you.
B
And
I'll
just
comment
that
text:
what
is
a
genius
and
the
fact
that
he
he
knew
about
the
joint
exercise
of
powers,
act
in
state
government
government
code,
section
6500
at
sec,
and
he
was
the
one
that
said
that
was
when
the
city
caneo
reckon
park
had
some
open
space.
The
city
was
getting
open
space
dedications
from
developers
and
people.
What
are
we
going
to
do
with
it?
You
know
I
had
there
was
one
old,
crpd
board
member
who
was
very
sort
of
you.
B
Can't
you
can't
put
any
recreation
on
it
that
doesn't
pay
taxes,
we
don't
want
any
more
open
space
and
luckily,
luckily,
tex
changed
him
around
and
the
idea
of
making
a
joint
powers
authority
with
the
city
and
the
park
district
really
was
a
fantastic
move
and-
and
I
agree
ed-
the
whole
canal
valley
could
be
named
after
texas
as
far
as
I'm
concerned,
but
that
might
elicit
some
objection
from
other
worthy
worthy
folks.
But
in
any
event,
I
think
this
is
a
great
idea
and
a
beautiful
view
spot
for
him.
D
G
B
E
E
We
very
much
appreciate
the
efforts
of
our
dedicated
volunteers,
as
their
work
is
integral
to
our
open
space
management
efforts.
I'd
also
like
to
acknowledge
our
new
volunteer
coordinator
for
adopt-a-trail
john
noble
john's
learned
the
ropes
very
quickly
and
is
doing
a
great
job.
Thank
you,
and
without
I'm
available
for
questions.
B
I
I
do
have
a
powerpoint
presentation,
so
we're
going
to
go
forward
with
that
and
we're
going
to
start
off
with
an
eagle
scout
project.
That
happened
to
be
very,
very
timely,
redoing
the
benches
in
the
amphitheater
at
the
bathrooms
at
the
cave
and
the
amphitheater
for
trail
ed
days.
So
it
was
a
great
eagle
scout
project
and
created
some
really
great
benches,
and
it's
been
about
20
years,
since
those
benches
have
been
redone,
so
hopefully
these
last
20
years
and
trailhead
days,
which
was
very
successful.
I
This
was
for
some
of
the
rangers,
the
very
first
trailhead
days
that
they
had
worked
on.
It
was
a
very
successful,
as
you
heard
earlier,
I
will
be
a
proud
dad
and
the
national
park
ranger
that
you
see
in
the
lower
right
hand
corner
is
my
daughter
who
attended
trail
ed
days
when
she
was
in.
Fourth
grade,
and
so
it
does
go
full
circle.
I
So
we
decided
it
needed
a
fence,
so
there's
a
fence
there.
Now
the
rangers
have
not
moved
in
completely
yet
we're
still
trying
to
secure
the
area
for
the
trucks
and
equipment
that
we
have,
and
so
that's
coming.
But
the
rangers
have
shown
some
of
their
indoor
skills
by
doing
some
drywall
work
and
improving
the
the
feel
of
the
building.
So
it's
it's
happening,
we'll
we'll
invite
you
all
for
a
little
open
house
at
some
point
and
we
alluded
to
the
rancho
petraro
education
area,
opening
with
the
amphitheater
there.
I
That
was
a
wonderful
event.
The
weather
was
spectacular,
the
views
were
great.
There
were
horses,
there
was
a
wonderful
ribbon,
cutting
rory
got
to
use
our
new
scissors
lethal
lethal
scissors,
but
the
location
is
wonderful
and
and
we're
hoping
that
we
can
use
it
for
outdoor
education
in
the
future,
and
it's
going
to
work
really
well
for
the
equestrian
center
there
as
well
lots
of
support
from
the
the
equestrian
center
that
day
and
everybody
had
a
great
time.
I
We
have
a
new
information
kiosk
there
that
shows
the
history
that
was
a
very
fun
kiosk
to
develop.
There
was
a
lot
of
things.
I
learned
you
always
hear
stories
as
a
ranger.
Oh
this
was
this,
and
this
was
that
and
then
to
have
somebody
come
and
tell
us
no.
This
was
something
a
little
different
and
expand
this
section
and
it
made
for
a
much
more
interesting
story.
So
it
was
a
great
group
effort
to
come
up
with
that.
Kiosk
next
so
trail
repair,
of
course,
isn't.
Excuse
me
an
ongoing
thing.
I
So
this
was
a
remove
and
replace
of
some
railroad
ties.
How
many
of
you
have
ever
carried
a
railroad
tie
a
half
mile
down
a
trail,
yeah
remove
and
replace
just
makes
it
look
too
easy
so
and-
and
you
kind
of
have
to
use
railroad
ties
when
the
majority
of
the
staircase
is
railroad
ties,
but
it's
a
fun
technique
and
you
only
want
to
do
it
once.
I
Lots
more
trees
down
we're
still
in
this
drought
situation,
and
the
oak
trees
are
very,
very
in
a
dismal
way
and
we've
had
two
or
three
go
down
on
the
los
padres
trail
and
the
whole
access
trail
this
last
month-
and
this
is
typically
what
you
encounter.
You
get
a
phone
call
or
on
patrol
the
rangers
would
find
this,
and
then
they
would
use
their
cool
new
saws
and
hand
cut
that
down
and
make
it
safe
for
equestrians
and
bikers
and
hikers.
I
This
is
actually
what's
really
going
on
with
the
rangers
right
now.
We
have
140
miles
of
trail
to
uncover.
That
is
all
overgrown
with
mustard.
We,
the
rangers,
have
triaged
all
the
trails
and
are
working
on
the
ones
that
are
the
busiest
that
are
the
most
used
and
that
are
going
to
be
coming
up
as
the
most
used
we're
hoping
to
get
all
of
the
trail
work
done
by
the
end
of
july.
I
But
it's
it's
pretty
rough
this
year,
the
rain
that
we
did
get
hit
just
perfect
for
mustard
propagation,
and
it's
it's
rough
out
there
so
keep
your
fingers
crossed
that
it
continues
to
go
well,
and
this
is
a
recent
sunset.
This
was
just
the
other
night.
I
was
pulling
out
of
hillcrest
and
I
saw
that
sun.
I
had
to
turn
back
around
and
run
out
on
the
roof
of
hillcrest
centers
to
get
that
shot.
So
I'm
available
for
any
questions
or
comments.
D
G
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Thank
you,
mr
kuba,
for
a
great
presentation.
I
love
those
action
photos
nice
to
see
the
actual
field
work
that
I
know
you
guys
are
doing
every
day
appreciate
that
the
mustard
reminded
me
of
when
I
was
out
there
for
trail
work
that
it
appeared
like
you
had
you
I'll,
say
you,
because
you're
you're,
the
chief
trails,
maintenance
guy,
actually
folks
pulling
mustard
along
the
side
of
some
of
those
has
that
shown
to
be
effective
in
some
some
areas.
I
Mustard
is
an
annual,
so
it
doesn't
come
back
anyway.
So
if
you,
if
you
weed
whack
it
at
the
correct
time,
it's
not
coming
back
this
year
and
hopefully
we
get
it
before
it
goes
to
seed,
but
the
the
seeds
are
so
small
and
they're,
so
the
soil
is
so
impregnated
with
them.
We're
probably
not
going
to
be
able
to
get
rid
of
mustard
completely.
I
I
don't
know
if
that
was
easier
or
not,
but
they
they
didn't
want
to
hike
and
such
so.
We
had
a
group
of
about
15
to
20
people,
and
now
that
was
a
project
that
we
did
with
them,
and
it
was
great
because
that
was
on
the
entranceway
to
the
mesa
and
it
really
cleaned
up
that
whole
area
and
made
it
really
nice.
So
it
was.
It
was
a
worthwhile
project,
but
it's
not
going
to
lower
the
mustard
population
at
all.
