Woody White: Not Done Yet
“I'd work with the same animals year after year. I'd have more continuity with the animals, more of a connection with them than I did some of the trail crew members. Our animals work, but they're cared for. I love them and give them attention and try to make them as comfortable as I can and don't overload them.”
Sam Walters is pursuing a “liberal arts education in trails.”
“There's a firstness about manual labor in the woods that keeps trail work so regional. There is a vernacular. But there's still something interesting about that larger shared language.”

“As long as you lay strong, it could work. Anything works. And that's the beauty about stonework. You can make something out of your hands, and if you build it right, then it's everlasting.”
