The guys took out a dozen or so blowdowns today... some single trees, some clusters |

Nyx had a good day, but it was cold and windy, so we watched her closely |

| Comments: |
Forecast was frigid and very windy, so we hedged a long time on our plans. Finally ended up at Tecumseh, using the route from Tripoli Rd since it was still open. Trail was in good condition, but there were quite a few blowdowns. Most are now taken care of, thanks to TimC and Silverfox. The final couple-hundred-yards on the way to the summit WERE very frigid and windy, so we were OK with our decision for the day. |
