More pictures from the second week of Konnarock that took place July 26-30, 2012. The crew was assisting the Blue Ridge Parkway and working on the blue-blaze trail that begins at the Humpback Rocks Parking Lot and leads to the Humpback Rocks.
Photo credit to Lori A. for these pictures!
Trail Crew Ahead!
Flagging sections of trail where repairs need to be made.
Crews hard at work digging and moving lots of rocks!
The result: A well-constructed set of steps improves the trail.
(for more pictures of completed projects, see Konnarock 2012 Album No. 2)
A Timber Rattlesnake was spotted crossing the trail near a work site!
Some interesting encounters while working on the trail -

Right: a large mushroom
