Summary

On October 31, 2006, three Beaver Island Community School students worked with the Port St. James Association to clear brush, dead trees, and overgrowth from the Little Font Lake and Hidden Valley trails, reopening views and trail access.

Evidence limits

This is a signed thank-you letter and not a work log, trail survey, or safety assessment.

Open questions

  • Which three students performed the October 2006 work, and were they later recognized for it?
  • Was this clearing effort connected to any later, larger Little Font Lake or Hidden Valley trail maintenance?

If you can answer any of these, or correct anything above, the archive wants to hear it — see Corrections.
