Great interview. I appreciate all of the hard work of these crews and say ‘thank you’ when I see them. I volunteer for maintenance of the AT and appreciate a thank you. I also totally agree that people need to stay on the trail especially on switchbacks
Thank you for conducting and posting this interview. We all need to hear about what great work the NPS staff are doing and how we can help maintain the health of the parks!
I've always marveled at the evidence of intensive work executed by the trail crews. From an array of huge rocks pieced together like a long puzzle to create a stretch to avoid erosion to multiple wheelbarrows full of gravel located miles into a trail for similar effect. They do such important work and do it well! Thanks so much for posting this interview; very interesting!
Great interview, we really enjoyed all the information and would love more interviews with National Park employees in the future. Much appreciation to all the hard work the crews put in on the trails, their dedication shows!
