Ever wondered how those epic backcountry trails get built and maintained?
Grab your virtual axe and join me, a complete newcomer to the world of sawing, on a journey of sweat, sawdust, and (hopefully) some scenic vistas!
This is a video diary of my experience as a greenhorn sawer on a trail volunteer trail crew, wielding a classic crosscut saw to clear paths through the wilderness.
From learning the proper technique (and avoiding amputations!) to the camaraderie of working with a team and the satisfaction of seeing a clear path emerge, this is an adventure for anyone who loves the outdoors and appreciates the hard work that goes into creating those wild spaces we cherish.
Get ready for:
The joys (and challenges) of using a crosscut saw - It's not your grandpa's chainsaw!
Learn the rhythm and teamwork required to master this traditional tool.
The beauty (and occasional frustration) of backcountry work - Stunning scenery and fresh air, balanced with the realities of bugs, sweat, and the occasional mishap.
The importance of trail maintenance - See firsthand the dedication it takes to keep our wilderness trails open and accessible.
So, if you're curious about trail work, want to see some amazing scenery, or just enjoy a good old-fashioned adventure story, then grab your headphones and hit that subscribe button
