Yeah, dont waste your time... We ended up walking about 4-5 miles of Keyauwee... Yes, hundreds of trees are down easily...   Took us about 4+ hours to get out of keyauwee going CW cause theres that many trees down... Talk about hike a bike!  It was the worse day of riding.. Sad when the fireroad was the best part.  We were just happy to get back on the fire road.

We all do!

Most of the day to day is done by a local fellow named Cliff. Last year we put togetjher a large workday to do general maintenance, clear drains and do some armoring. We hade help and machines from Ed Sutton of Trail Dynamics.

Sounds like this will be a lot of work. Unfortunately only those with appropriate training can use a chainsaw on Forest Service property.
