Renni trees down/inquiry

Two trees down. First one about 50 yards in the extension to the volleyball courts. I moved two other trees it took with it but this takes a chainsaw. Second just past the t-1 sign by the volley ball courts it's a head snatcher. 

Have we ever thought about putting small bridges in the extension and be done with the winter  slop. I try to avoid it in the winter but wanted to see what shape it was in?
Can anyone grab a chainsaw at renin? I work right behind it and can go out and get them if people post in the future.

I'm headed over to Renni this morning to cut these two trees off the trail.  That's a pretty good description of the locations.  Thanks for posting that.

Maybe we could use the two trees to solve the problem with the entrance to the connector trail. Reinforced log bridge??

The trees are off the trail, but the trail is sloppy wet.  Looks like a couple of days before it'll be rideable.  Angry

Now you mention that at the end of the short track where they have the bridge trusses there is a huge stack of cut logs. I'm sure park and rec will never use or know they are there anyone have a contact for Renni?
