Today was a wonderful day. It started off with a wonderful presentation in the Voorhees parking lot from a very kind member of the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife (sorry if I messed that up). She talked to us about the many species of turtles found in New Jersey as well as salamanders and other amphibians. It gave the morning a nice EE-Day feel. After that the vans departed and we went on with our normal morning routine. It was kind of disappointing that we had no work to do during the time Rachel Lettre was visiting; instead we went on a hike through our newest trail. We ate snack by the rocks and took numerous pictures by the rock structures that we were so proud of. Once we arrived at the vans many of the crew members were upset to see that the people living across the street had left us a note informing us that there had been a lost dog and urging us to keep an eye out for it. We then went back to Mountain Farm and practiced pitching tents until the other crew was finished working at their trail. Once Greenteam 2 was finished working, we went to hike the trail they made at Cushetunk and eventually completed the Cushetunk loop. Everyone from our crew was very impressed with the work the other crew had completed on their trail. During our hike of the loop, many crew members expressed interest in working further along on the trail next year in order to make for a more pleasant hike. That about sums up the day. I'm pumped for the rec. trip.
