Tools needed for June 29th work day

[Rubicrawler]

Many have asked, so here's a list of what I think we will need.

Must haves:
*Drinking water- bring enough for yourself
*Insect repellent
*Sunscreen- EDIT- thanks Dan!
*work gloves
*shovels
*metal dirt rakes
*large pry bars to move rocks and logs
*chain- to use as chokers to move rocks and logs
*a couple of wheelbarrels
*a few chain saws to help with bypass blocking
*5 gallon buckets- EDIT- thanks Dan!
Nice to haves:
*small jeep-type trailer
*gas powered pump- to remove standing water

Many of us have winches that may be employed to help with the heavy work of dragging logs, etc.

Please be aware that this will be a dirty/muddy job. Extra gloves, shoes and clothing may be needed.

Many of you have more experience than I with this sort of project. Please feel free to reply with any other tools you think are necessary.

Good list mark. I'll add:

5 gallon buckets to drain standing water. Also good for moving cobble.

Sunscreen

Every one should bring eye protection.

For those not in the mud, it may be dusty too, so bandana's and alergy medicine might be good. List above looks good.

Remember to pace yourselves. You will be at an elevation that most of you are not used to working in. I am sorry but unless something changes i cannot be there.

You can park your tow rig at Loon at the bottom of the spillway. It's a short drive to the work site.

Flat??? It's the Rubicon! I thought you were planning on towing your trail rig up. You won't be able to bring equipment in.

But, hey, thanks for the offer!

Again, thanks for the offer :D I wish we could get equipment into the work area. It would save a lot of back breaking work.
