Soldiers and their families celebrate the holidays together at the 416th Theater Engineer Command's seasonal celebration by taking time to visit their service members at work, see what they do and reflect on family and service December 7.
For the sixth consecutive year, engineers and staff from Pima County’s Transportation Department will teach kids how to make asphalt cookies during the “Discovering Engineering at the Mall” event on Saturday, Feb. 20 from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. The event, held at Foothills Mall, 7401 N. La Cholla Blvd., brings together engineers from across the region to increase awareness and appreciation for the profession as part of Engineers Week, Feb. 21-27.
An epic trip - 6-hours, 30-miles from Ouray to Lake City, Colorado - with rough rocky patches, switchbacks, shelf roads, and sweeping vistas all the way, reaching almost 13,000 feet at the summit. A Jeep Badge of Honor trail for good reason.
From TrailsOffroad.com: In the late 1800’s, miners started digging for gold, silver, lead and other ore in the San Juan Mountains. They needed a way to get people and the ore out to the nearby towns. Those roads left by the long-abandoned mines are now some of the most famous off-road trails in the books. Engineer Pass, a 30-mile trail, is one of them and is part of a trail now known as the Alpine Loop.
There are multiple mine ruins to view and explore the grounds of along the way including the Hard Tack Mine and the Michael Breen Mine.
Mile after mile provides new and more amazing views of Colorado and the San Juan mountains. Oh Point and the official summit have breath-taking panoramas of the mountains.
This trail goes well above the timberline at just over 12,900’. With the altitude comes stunning views of the mountains to the north including the Uncompahgre, Coxcomb, Wetterhorn and Wildhorse mountain peaks. The view is so expansive at Oh Point that on a very clear day, you might be able to see all the way to Utah if you turn your eyes to the west.

Engineers Australia May outing was to one of our subs. Couldn't stay for the whole thing due to a drawing class, but the old sub (built late 1930's) was cool.

Soldiers with Alpha Company, 249th Engineer Battalion, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, known as Prime Power, have deployed for a unique training mission with the Los Angeles District in Arizona.
In support of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, San Carlos Irrigation Project, Staff Sgt. Jacob Wratchford and Sgt. Eduardo Delacruz are finding that a deployment here is practical real-world training.
"It's great experience ... and a gateway to other missions," Delacruz said. "We're assessing their area of operations ... we look for no more than 5 ohms of resistance in the ground."
The dryness of the soil, typically reduces conductivity, so this is a perfect time to test, Wratchford explained.
"We're looking for gross faults in the grounding system," he said. "The testing we're doing uses a small voltage and allows us to see the overall condition of the grounding grid that they have. What we hope to see is good conductivity across the substation."
The scope of work describes "conductivity" as a measurement to determine a resistance value that indicates the relative ability of the soil to carry an electric current.
Claudia Garcia, a project manager with the LA District says that this is a unique opportunity for representatives with the Corps and the San Carlos Irrigation Project to collaborate on ways to maintain the sub stations and potentially identify improvements and possible future projects.
Any potential projects would likely be through the Corps’ Interagency and International Services program.
Although this mission varies from the IIS program a bit, in that the 249th Engineer Battalion is providing the labor and expertise as a training mission. The 249th is charged with the rapid deployment of U. S. Army generators to support worldwide requirements.
