Description: On Saturday, May 15, 2010, the Houston Sierra Club will conduct trail maintenance on the Tarkington Section of the Lone Star Hiking Trail (LSHT) in Sam Houston National Forest. We will conduct about 2.0 miles of trail maintenance. May is a warm, but a beautiful time to enjoy the woods. Bring a lopper, machete, swing-blade, saw, or similar tool to trim branches and low growing vegetation. If you do not have a tool we have extra ones. Bring a daypack, two quarts of water, hat, lunch, and hiking shoes. Long pants are highly recommended!!! Meet at 8:00 a.m. in the parking lot behind the International House of Pancakes (IHOP) at I-45 North and Greens Road. Look for a green Nissan mini-van. To get to the parking lot, enter the feeder off I-45 North via the Greens Road exit and then pass through the traffic signal at Greens Road. Turn right into the first strip center you come to (look for Brown Sugar’s Barbecue) and drive to the end of the strip center. The parking lot behind IHOP is on the right. Call Jane Prentiss at 713-201-5755 or email her at lshttrailboss@yahoo.com for additional details. Please supply your name and contact information should we need to make changes.
