Has anyone surveyed Deliverance or either side of Snake Head? I’m hoping to get out this week to start the process.

One week ago the road from the gravel pit to the SOT Mousseau Lake Cabin was not passable. I suspect trying to access Deliverance by the North end is still impossible.

The South entrance to Deliverance by way of SOT is now clear, go by the 2 track after the gravel pit on the left from the road.

That’s what I figured Steph…that road section is gonna be the challenge :(

  • SRT cleared
  • We clear a few trees from the two track between Chatham Run and K&P ( trail 20 minute start from. It has a name, but I can't remember :))
We were going to finish claim jumpers, but the logger were working along Perch Lake road and I think we should let them finish before we go back in.

Son of a gun is 99% clear
Up a creek was listed as clear but we did more.
Snakehead we did some work on. Unfortunately a small section of it is beyond fixing. Still some huge sketchy logs. 11am to 5:30pm and we only put a dent in it.

Mcgone / Sone of a Gun cleared from Bompas to Snake Head or all the way to the 2 track / dirt road (Little Depot) ?

I guess the active logging is finished on that section as well, have not seen any activity. The hunter might do some clearing, but probably not to fall. So, it's up to us :(

Was out on the Northside yesterday. Section on Mark's Misery is blocked by a large tree, assuming this came down after the fact. I came in from the Green's Landing Rd and only made it about 2-300 yards. If I had a chain saw, I'd clear it myself.IMG_8571.jpeg

I was out with Doug, Chris and Flaubert yesterday.
We cleared tree's on BS close to up the creek, and re-cleared the 4 sections of Faron's Folly - thanks @riddletw for the report of downed trees
We also finished Claim Jumper 1 and 2.

If you want a taste of how bad it is out there, go ride Claim Jumper 2.

North is not all cleared, went Sunday and Marks Misery is still badly blocked in several spots. The hill out of Oriole Lake also has a beastly pine smack in the middle now and couldn’t get beyond that to see what else lays. I am planning on going back end of week to clear these.

I have a feeling that we are going to be dealing with a tone of new dead fall all summer. there is a lot of trees just hanging there waiting for a good wind to come by.

Yup, I have hit deadfall a couple times on back to back rides of the same trails since the storm.

Ryan &Ross you’re spot on … unfortunately and we’ll be dealing with this for a bit. Possibly another wind event tomorrow that may rattle things loose.
BTW…rode out to the north entrance of Deliverence and walked in (…I was on the 650R) and it’s gonna need some attention :(

Right on, glad to hear you made it to the North entrance. I've done Deliverance with the saw before, I'll add it to the visit list :)

I am aiming on getting out Saturday 18th.

I expect to do DMZ (hopefully to Bartaw camp?). Was out Wednesday for a ride and there is new downfall (not that bad though).

I have a club chainsaw and I do not think I can get out Sunday, so if anyone wants it I will park at the HGC.
