Gary and I got out on the trails Wednesday night. We checked out Over Lode and the short loop on the mound. The storm that tore through the area on Monday did damage at Blue Mound too.
There are tree limbs down everywhere on the trails. We could really use help cleaning up. No tools or special knowledge needed, just people willing to walk the trails instead of riding them, and throw sticks off the trail.
I realize this is a lot to ask with how little the trails have been open this year, but your trusty trail management team has been working long hours to open the new reroute, provide improved stream bed crossings, attend meetings, plan strategy, cut dead fall, and now cut the jungle-like weed growth choking the trails. It all gets done eventually, but extra hands on cleanup duty would free up my time to do the things I can't find help with.
If you do find the time to do cleanup, please post here or message me so we can coordinate the effort.
A big thanks to Ryan and Rich for the time they have put in weed cutting. The end is in sight!
