Just walked it with rake and saw... cleared the big stuff, but expect small sticks and some mud. 

If you ride today (and I know folks are jonesin'), please pay it forward when I ask for help on trail work days later this fall.  Smiley

Went out again yesterday and stuff down on the top of the jump line and around poo tracks. I'm sure stuff down all over. Going out tomorrow afternoon to walk the front 1/3 and look around. Anyone free Monday afternoon (weather permitting). Going to start cleanup going through each 1/3. How many big trees did you have to clean up?

We cleared Sherman yesterday of 2 trees.

Got 4 more that came down today. Might be a while before I get them.

Do what you like. Stop hating people for their riding habits and get back to hating them for their skin color, religion, politics, and sexual orientation.

Keep in mind, SWDP is only 2.4 miles... still I had two trees that needed the chainsaw and two others that I was able to drag off the trail. I spent 2 hours out there.

On the bright side, I then got in two laps and the bike was clean... the trail is in surprisingly good shape.

I was able to clear most of what I came across at Renni with a handsaw today, but heading back tomorrow with a chainsaw for the big stuff.  Only made it up to gulley option after running out of steam and daylight, not sure what lies ahead.  LOTS of dead fall everywhere, so riders be warned when the trails open.

I have reason to believe that the squirrels are mocking me.
