This thread will be used to help cleaning crews focus on trails that need work and keep track of what is cleared for riding.
-Establishing new paths around fallen trees is not an authorized practice by MNRF, doing this on a wide scale could harm our relationship with MNRF and our access to the trails, we also lose flow and exacerbate erosion
-Cut 18" to 24" on both side of the trails when possible
-When reporting a trail as cleared, please ride / clear the entire length of the trail
Please reply with the work you completed so I can update the list
Prioritize single track trails!

Trail in pretty good shape. I have rode most of the route in August.
Below are the only areas I know of needing attention (as of August 21)
- Red Horse, bigish tree down around where SS Minnow joins - needs to be removed since this is part of orange loop
- Deliverance, big tree down on the hill entrance at SOT, rumors of another tree elsewhere (I haven't verified, anyone knows?), you can get around this tree
- Land Time Forgot, face slappers, low priority since this trail is not getting much use
- Odettes, ByPass section, ATV crashed some brush, clearable with hand saw, face slappers
- Ho Chi Ming (this seems to be called Helter Skelter on Steph's maps?), between Whisky Throttle entrance and Odette ByPass entrance, low priority
- Mud Run, I have not checked, anyone?, low priority can always bypass
- Quinn's, face slappers mainly around section that UTV/Trucks/ATV do not use going down front of hill (e.g. the old trail before the loggers went in last), low priority
- Mair Lake, more face slappers to be removed, but low priority in fair shape
- Three Floods, face slappers to remove, but low priority
If you have an update, just use the Reply, I'll get notification and update this section. Thanks. Doug.
