USFS Ranger District or BLM Field Office: Federal land area we are working on that day.

Total Crew Hours: Total hours the crew worked that day.

Trail Numbers and Names Worked: Names and numbers of any trails we were on that day with the intention to work on anything we find within the scope of our daily routine maintenance.

Miles Ridden: Total miles on the bikes for the day clocked by odometer

Trail Miles Maintained: All mapped OHV trails ridden for the day with the intent to do any routine maintenance encountered while riding them.

Trees Felled: Any tree that requires a face cut to drop safely on the ground. Some leaners could be considered these depending on complexity.

Trees Cut: Any trees that are removed from across the trail. Whether it is carried, takes one cut, two cuts, or fifty cuts, each tree is counted individually. We cut everything that is across the trail. If a standing rider can touch it or if its across the trail from the ground up. These are tallied for an end of the day count.

Drainage's Cleared: Any old drains that are in good spots but have failed or will likely fail without cleaning. We clean and repair these drains. It could be anything from rebuilding a large old drain, to helping water off where it makes sense and is naturally occurring. Count each one for an end of the day count.

New Drains Built: This is when we build a new drain on an existing trail. Size and complexity is dependent on the terrain and soil type the drain is in. We count each one individually.

Reroute (number of feet dug): Reroute is an approved or within nepa guidelines, new section of trail added to an existing trail to improve the sustainability of the existing trail. We dig this and then walk it or ride it with gps on to get an accurate count of new footage.

Reconstruction (number of feet of new trail constructed): This is when we help with the building of a new trail, this is the ground work portion of quantifying how much work is done digging on a new trail. New trail built on non existing trail. This is ridden or walked with gps to get accurate footage.

Debris Removed: usually focus on long bad sections. We then walk the section and remove all debris that is not hardened into the trail surface, fist size and above. We then walk the section with our gps running to get the footage. We also remove large single rocks that have been dislodged or rolled into the trail, as we come across them while we are riding. This is only counted as a couple to a few feet depending on the impact having it there, does to the trail.

Corridor Clearing (feet): This is all trees, brush, branches, twigs, that are decreasing visibility or hitting the users as they are traveling. We remove this by cutting everything back to a forest service spec of single track. An easy way to get a visual representation is a horse with paneers on the side. We cut these sections in large areas where we then walk and gps the distance. Or we cut single instances as we are traveling and add them as a couple feet each time, depending on how much they are encroaching on the trail. This is again tallied and added at the end. Some areas get cut less or more depending on need for different reasons including visibility, trail speed, erosion, trail densities and user types.

Signs Installed or Maintained: This is anything sign related, whether we replace stickers, replace a sign or carsonite that has been broken or removed, or bringing in new signs to be installed or replace old ones. Each time we do any work to a sign we tally it for this category.

Number of Trail Contacts Made: This is each user we encounter and interact with on the trail. Each one of these users is counted and listed in a specific discipline whether they are hiking with or without a dog dirt biking side by siding horse back riding hunting biking or riding a four wheeler. These numbers help get accurate tallies of who is using the forest and trails.

Truck Miles: Total truck mileage per hitch

Truck Gas: total amount on gas receipts

Description of Work for the Day: Quick story about what the crew did that day. This gives whoever reads the trail log an idea of what the crew accomplished in their work goals for that day. Its brief description talks about who, what, when and where it happened on that day.
