Did quite a bit of maintenance trying to clear water bars of leaves. Several significant blowdowns at apx 3700ft, there is a trail cut through them and are passable now, but will require chainsaw or an axe team in the spring.
Some minor to moderate erosion at the beginning of the ascent up the ravine |

 | Comments: |
Trail is clear to 3700 feet. Removed tons of debris from the trail and hastily cleared about 25 water bars. Several significant blowdowns (10-14") at about 3700 I was able to get through them and the trail tread is now visible. Had to turn back short of the summit as it was starting to rain heavily with some wild wind and thick fog. I am guessing there is more work to be had further up, bring a saw!
