Drainage channel was dug by Francisco, and the willow will help make this permanent. Rained a bit today and forecast has more tonight. Scott explains to group how to plant the willow-sticks with the flow of water, kinda laying down rather than just straight up. Ranger Larry and I collected these cutting from down in Emerald Canyon in November. After about 1.5 months, they began to root, click picture to enlarge to see roots. The expectation is to use willow cutting from regular trail clearing next time. See slideshow for more pictures. (Click any pic to enlarge)
