Also cleared BS1 bypass on the way back.

Out today with AJ, Ryan L, Mike Spears. Cleared Blazing Saddles, Wrack Attack, SOT and Lone Wolf. We concentrated on the large stuff the most. Still face slappers to clean up and one large tree at the end of SOT we didn’t have enough chainsaw gas for

Terry and I took out a chainsaw and cleared S&M, Snakehead & New Trail (south loop). Was going to do Ruth's and Staircase but gate was open and someone was there. Note that black flies are out. They will be biting by next weekend!

You can send anyone with a Forum account an email. Use the "Conversation" feature. On the top ribbon to the right of your user name is an envelope button. Start a conversation with a post adding account name(s) for who you want to contact. This will send an email to those on the recipient list. They can then reply/post to your new conversation. Bit of a two-step, but it does avoid having your email address fished!

A group of us checked out M&M, Forbidden Planet, Lost 'n Found, and Perch Lake. M&M in good shape but could have face slappers taken care of. Forbidden Planet is rideable as is Lost 'n Found. We rode Little Green Road and out the Triple Tower Line; had to ride over a beaver dam that was too deep to ford close to 511.

Perch Lake is blocked and needs a chainsaw, Paul said he will try to open it this weekend perhaps. We did not check any of the Claim Jumpers.

On Friday some of us were out riding, light clearing and scoping. Kudos to Tom Riddle for the new Battery Lake Trail!
Trails that are passable that we rode but needing a bit if work from a chainsaw include straddlebug lookout, and Whiskey throttle. Straddlebug proper and DMZ from whisky to 77 were both OK as well as Raven's Roost. We also rode Up the Creek and the bypass, skidder to long grass.

Some guys rode BFH yesterday and reported no chainsaw work required. Just lots of branches and such on the ground from logging.

Faron's Folly North is clear
Rack Attack is clear
SOT is clear

Sounds about right for BFH. I was out there Easter and got through, but some of the branches are big enough to chainsaw!

Fair enough, I will try and get out there before orientation. Weather and time dependent.
