CTETA was the driving force in repairing this windmill, although we split
the cost with three other entities: the U.S. Forest Service, Friends of the
Grasslands, and Hodges Farms (has the cattle lease). Our member Al Olsson
helped convince the Forest Service that we could manage the project, then
coordinated the work & did lots of the manual labor himself. The result is
the best working windmill at the Grasslands!
Thanks to all who participated and volunteered to make the Texas Trail
Challenge on June 18th a great success.
Cross Timbers trail has a new trailhead parking lot. Dunham Road Trailhead
Opening and Ceremony was well represented.
