We cleared and trimmed many, many blowdowns on davis path. Most were between jct. Ofisolation trail east and just where it starts to incline up to glen boulder jct. There must have been a microburst come in from the east. We've never seen blowdowns this bad before on a trail. |

We didnt see one person all day today. Which is a shame. It turned out to be a great day out there. we decided glen boulder route thinking the rocky branch water crossins would be to high to cross. The treed section just past the boulder, you are best with snowshoes. And snowshoes would be your best bet I think on the Davis path. There is still a lot of snow out there and post hole'in really sucks. Plus there is alot of unstable monorail out there. All nall was a great day. Thanks to Heather, Kali,And Bill for a great another great hike. |
