We shadowed our friends at the 553rd Forward Engineer Support Team – Advance en route to a mission in Kandahar. The team deployed to Afghanistan from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers New York District and will be supporting engineering and infrastructure projects in Afghanistan for the next nine months. The men and women serving in the 553rd Forward Engineer Support Team – Advance are rare. There are only eight teams like them in the world; each comprised of one officer-in-charge, one non-commissioned officer and six highly-skilled U.S. Army Corps of Engineers civilian technical experts. From design, construction management, contracting, geospatial support and more, the teams quickly produce relevant engineering products and services worldwide.
Beginning in the Whittaker Creek Campground, the steep Old Growth Ridge Trail ascends 750 vertical feet over a mile’s length, topping out at a peekaboo viewpoint over the Siuslaw River. Benches and interpretive panels along the way allow a moment to catch one’s breath. A short spur trail descends slightly to a lightning-struck Douglas Fir tree. The unique site and setting of the Old Growth Ridge Trail and its newer Armantrout Loop segment make it nationally significant, earning it National Recreation Trail status.
Know Before You Go:
• The trailhead is located between campsites 23 and 24 on the opposite side of the campground loop road.
• Visitors can park in the campground day use parking areas. During the winter when the park is closed to access, they can park near the entrance or in the boating area opposite the campground on the river. Please do not block the gate and use caution if parking along the major haul road.
• Trail boardwalks can be very slick when wet; use caution when traversing them.
• The day use area and 31-site campground are open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. This is a first-come, first served campground opportunity.
Point of Interest: On the return from the top, take the Armantrout Loop Trail at Alden Glen trail junction. This 1.4-mile alternative has eight switchbacks to maintain a gentle grade on your way back to the trailhead.
Latitude / Longitude: 43.98635, -123.6633
Directions from Eugene, Oregon -- Travel west on Highway 126 through the forested foothills of the Coast Range. Turn left on Siuslaw Road (about 40 miles). Travel three miles watch for signs to the campground located on your right.
Fee: There is no fee for day-use. Camping is $10 per site and $5 for each extra vehicle.

A Eutric Cambisol in Poland.(Photo provided by Bradley Miller, Iowa State University, Department of Agronomy, Geospatial Laboratory for Soil Informatics). For more information, visit: glsi.agron.iastate.edu/images/soil-profiles/
A Cambisol in the World Reference Base for Soil Resources (WRB) is a soil in the beginning of soil formation. The horizon differentiation is weak. This is evident from weak, mostly brownish discolouration and/or structure formation in the soil profile. Cambisols are developed in medium and fine-textured materials derived from a wide range of rocks, mostly in alluvial, colluvial and aeolian deposits.
Most of these soils make good agricultural land and are intensively used. Cambisols in temperate climates are among the most productive soils on earth. Cambisols cover an estimated 15 million square kilometres worldwide. They are well represented in temperate and boreal regions that were under the influence of glaciation during the Pleistocene, partly because the soil's parent material is still young, but also because soil formation is comparatively slow in the cool, northern regions. Cambisols are less common in the tropics and subtropics, but they are common in areas with active erosion where they may occur in association with mature tropical soils.
Most of these soils make good agricultural land and are intensively used. Cambisols in temperate climates are among the most productive soils on earth.

With the assistance of the United States Embassy, NOAA's National Geodetic Survey provided technical assistance to the Ministry of Water Resources, General Directorate for Surveying and Mapping in Iraq, for the first Continuously Operating Reference Station (CORS) to be installed by the Iraqi government.
CORS is a permanently operating Global Positioning System (GPS) base station, which enables the determination of highly accurate GPS positions. The new Iraqi-installed CORS, part of the Iraqi Geospatial Reference System, will improve the quality, accuracy, and cost of airfield and boundary surveys and other precise positioning activities in Iraq. This CORS looks east over the city of Baghdad and is maintained and operated by the Iraq Ministry of Water Resources.

There are only eight teams like them in the world; each comprised of one officer-in-charge, one non-commissioned officer and six highly-skilled U.S. Army Corps of Engineers civilian technical experts. From design, construction management, contracting, geospatial support and more, the teams quickly produce relevant engineering products and services worldwide.
Beginning in the Whittaker Creek Campground, the steep Old Growth Ridge Trail ascends 750 vertical feet over a mile’s length, topping out at a peekaboo viewpoint over the Siuslaw River. Benches and interpretive panels along the way allow a moment to catch one’s breath. A short spur trail descends slightly to a lightning-struck Douglas Fir tree. The unique site and setting of the Old Growth Ridge Trail and its newer Armantrout Loop segment make it nationally significant, earning it National Recreation Trail status.
Know Before You Go:
• The trailhead is located between campsites 23 and 24 on the opposite side of the campground loop road.
• Visitors can park in the campground day use parking areas. During the winter when the park is closed to access, they can park near the entrance or in the boating area opposite the campground on the river. Please do not block the gate and use caution if parking along the major haul road.
• Trail boardwalks can be very slick when wet; use caution when traversing them.
• The day use area and 31-site campground are open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. This is a first-come, first served campground opportunity.
Point of Interest: On the return from the top, take the Armantrout Loop Trail at Alden Glen trail junction. This 1.4-mile alternative has eight switchbacks to maintain a gentle grade on your way back to the trailhead.
Latitude / Longitude: 43.98635, -123.6633
Directions from Eugene, Oregon -- Travel west on Highway 126 through the forested foothills of the Coast Range. Turn left on Siuslaw Road (about 40 miles). Travel three miles watch for signs to the campground located on your right.
Fee: There is no fee for day-use. Camping is $10 per site and $5 for each extra vehicle.

We shadowed our friends at the 553rd Forward Engineer Support Team – Advance en route to a mission in Kandahar. The team deployed to Afghanistan from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers New York District and will be supporting engineering and infrastructure projects in Afghanistan for the next nine months. The men and women serving in the 553rd Forward Engineer Support Team – Advance are rare. There are only eight teams like them in the world; each comprised of one officer-in-charge, one non-commissioned officer and six highly-skilled U.S. Army Corps of Engineers civilian technical experts. From design, construction management, contracting, geospatial support and more, the teams quickly produce relevant engineering products and services worldwide.
FORT BELVOIR NORTH AREA, VA. — An aerial view of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) Campus East Remote Inspection Facility, Jan. 6, 2011. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Baltimore District is leading design and construction of the NGA complex. Besides the remote inspection facility, the complex includes an eight-story main office building, technology center, visitor control center, parking garage and central utilities plant -- 2.4 million square feet in all.

FORT BELVOIR NORTH AREA, Va. — Jose Quezada (right), an employee of ISEC, cuts metal brackets -- called Z clips -- as co-worker Edgar Sagastume holds them in place in the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) Campus East building here Sept. 23, 2010. Quezada, Sagastume and fellow ISEC employees are installing wooden panels on wall and ceiling surfaces in various locations throughout the building. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Baltimore District, along with NGA, is leading design and construction of the $1.7 billion project. The campus is located in Northern Virginia, on what was formerly known as Fort Belvoir's Engineer Proving Grounds. (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers photo by Marc Barnes)
