This last weekend we ran into the same fallen tree problem going into the Sky Lakes. Debris on the trail seems to be the theme this year, unfortunately. I too worry about the USFS's ability to clean up the mess, hopefully we don't lose trails in the process.

Lots of fallen trees up there too! So it was slower going than expected. I worry that the USFS won't have the resources to clear many of these?Bruce Hopehttps://wordpress.com/posts/vanmarmot.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1954169774784248994.post-6294953597824445952016-06-23T21:16:40.617-07:002016-06-23T21:16:40.617-07:00I should have brought both you and your Pulaski wi...I should have brought both you and your Pulaski with me!Richard O'Neillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02220291149016460968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1954169774784248994.post-68282073621705744122016-06-20T13:12:17.682-07:002016-06-20T13:12:17.682-07:00Aww, I get nostalgic about grasshopper mountain!

Sometimes I think we hikers should invest in a lightweight powerfull chainsaw and get paid to hike and cut the trees from the trail. Seems like some trails take forever to get cleaned up. Hang in there, and keep hiking and posting!!Glenn and Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07753921250399375985noreply@blogger.com
