Re: Another Woodside Work Party!

I think that is we keep at it a few more times we will be able to secure the road for long time.
Now lets make sure they don't do to big cross ditches when the forest company stops removing trees

Yes, is ok, plus along the road going down to the LZ, just make sure the road is clear.

We will be doing some clearing of the bushes to maximise parking space.

Re: Vehicle Parking for Woodside

I also talk to Sheila, and she is open to let people park on her Yard for a FEE, it has to be negotiated with her directly, and she will tell you on what spot to park, you can arrange for a season spot
Please be very respectful and cordial with Sheila, she is already helping us a lot.
