Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: We were able to chop up the two large blowdowns on the ski area side of Sosman. Also removed two widowmakers on the Tecumseh Trail. Dug out, extended, and rebuilt a hidden rock stairway and added a rock waterbar above it to hopefully keep it clear. Thank you Eric!

Comments
Comments: Trails were generally dry and in good shape (prior to the thunderstorms this afternoon). We were able to rebuild about 20 feet of trail in 3 hours - the other 13,000 or so feet will have to wait.
