Tree down at Springs

Not sure if the folks who are in charge of Springs watch the forum, but it must've come down during last night's storm.

It's 1.6 miles in if you go clockwise starting at the tennis court area (I forget the actual name of that loop).  I attached an image of where it is.  Chainsaw needed.

That looks to be School West - just before the tunnel.

Trail clean up and repairs get done a lot faster now then in years past.
Steve (mtb geezer) works out there, he talks to the riders and rides the trails a few times a week so he knows the trail conditions and what needs to be done.

Government has no reason to use common sense or be efficient as it pays no price for failure.

Yeah, you can tell.  There was a time not too many years ago when Springs seemed "forgotten."  So, it's great to see all the improvements out there... you can tell whoever commissioned the work was someone who rides it.  The exact spots that needed attention were the ones that got.  Thumbs Upsup:
