Would have been faster to do this with a pruning saw in November when it was rideable, but it's done. In winter, 8 minutes work for 2 hours of travel time. btw, not even slightly rideable as of January '24 (no surprise).

Compact snow, kind of type 2 fun but it is about 98% ride-able. It'll stay ok as long as it stays cold. Not sure why it'd be listed as closed although snow is accurate.
