Brittany, Tom, and I started to rebuild part of the double tetter totter in play area on Sat just before the storm. 

The structure is still unrideable, so please be safe and DO NOT try it yet. 

I may be able to get out in two wknds again - this time with chainsaw for the downed trees- if not cut by then. 

Otherwise trails are in great condition- see u put there!!

Thanks for sending this Danny.  Bob and I were out there late this afternoon and were able to move several big trees (along with some vine entanglements that would make Tarzan jealous).  There is one tangled mess still out on the Outer Limits that we could not deal with by hand as well as one tree that is new but totally ridable (and in my view should be left).  We also moved a few of these in the 121 area but there is a fresh (and large) tree down at the bottom of the hill near the Graveyard that should probably be cut out too.  Not sure when we will have an official work day again but we will post it for sure.  If a couple of us can get out there on an off day then we might just take care of these isolated issues...

There are still MANY small sticks, etc. on the trail (even though we moved A LOT of them).  It seems that a good bit of wind blew through there yesterday.  Can I just remind all trail users of the old saying, "Move That Stick".  If you see a stick/log/vine on the trail and can easily move it by hand, PLEASE DO!  Stop expecting someone else to do it and just stop for a second an throw it off the trail.  If we all move a few of these per lap the trail is SO much more enjoyable.  Build some good trail karma and MOVE THAT STICK!!
