Little Black Mountain Slide Damage

A large landslide took out a 150 foot long section of trail on the Sonoma Land Trust's Little Black Mountain Preserve, restricting access to part of the preserve. Crew leaders from the Trails Council worked with Land Trust staff and volunteers, and in less than five hours constructed new trail to replace the destroyed section.
