Pony Express trail builders Initiation.
Lithgow Pony Club, Sheedies Gully, off Hassans Walls rd.

Some of the consent conditions are very strict so our main guys need to be inducted by Andrew Macleod from SEEEC in regards to the soil and sediment control measures that need to go into the construction and maintenance of the trail.
What to bring
Good footware, long pants recommended, food and water.
Not sure if we will be able to actually start digging but bring the standard trail tools just in case we get the go ahead.
At this stage I think we'll just get Andrew to run us through the fine print and then do a walk of the line to get ideas, sus out the trouble areas and better plan the exact route.

the plan is to get our soil and sediment control expert to run us through all the dos and don'ts. Explain why we need to adhere to certain restrictions and what the consequences are of not doing so.
We'll then walk the trial line and discuss specific issues and ideas of how to build what
