Other Information:
We spent most of our week cutting tree’s that had fallen across the trail. Some of the trails had over one hundred trees down on them. 673 alone had almost a full day’s work to open. 676 has some very big tree’s left in the middle section that we were unable to clear because of time. Most of the trails are in good shape and the snow is disappearing fast. 679 has some erosion issues near Jackson creek road. 676 also has some major erosion issues south of Campbell mountain. The reconstruction we did was due to uprooted trees. Thanks for the support from the South Platte RD.
