Good man! Trail building is solid, gratifying work.
I did a bunch of it back in my Boy Scouts days. One guy's Eagle Scout project was building 0.25 mi of trail connecting the PCT to Scout Camp Mataguay out in Santa Ysabel. 1/4 mile doesn't sound like much but boy was that a lot of work! It took a whole team of us many weekends to complete.
For my project I built 200 ft of cedar split rail fencing along an Audubon Nature preserve in my home town. It's still there and I like to ride by it some times when I'm riding from home/my parent's house.
