Two pairs working on the same hillside today.
Ray and Stella finished work on the path running west through Knott Wood below Winters. We re-seated 3 marker posts, widened and flattened some more stretches of narrow and downhill sloping path and cut back vegetation at tight spots.

.....clearer. |
 |
Quite overgrown.... |
 |
This post is now straight and doesn't wobble. |
 |
This one just came away in Ray's hands.....
|
 |
...but is now quite firm.
|
 |
Narrow and tricky....
|
 |
...especially on a downhill bend.
|
 |
Wider, flatter..... |
 |
....safer. |
