Halo Celebration Recap
A few pictures from Halo Celebration – May 13, 2010 at the West Keystone TH. We had perfect weather for an evening out on Peavine. The event marked the completion of a 6.5 long trail alignment begun in the fall of 2008 and completed in December of 2009. The trail is now marked from the West Keystone TH with trail signage, new trail head maps are at eight Peavine access points, with more trail maps available on the Poedunk web site.
We would like to thank all our trail partners, the USFS Carson District of the Humboldt Toiyabe National Forest, Nevada State Parks, the Nevada Conservation Corps, and Washoe County Parks for all the time and effort in this project.
