    Tread work and trail cleanup from FR063 to the Silverleads Connector - 5/12/26. Trail is clear of deadfall and riding great (except for that 300-foot section of creek-trail). The FS previously cleared the couple of big trees that came down during the April 2026 Rx Burn. Watch for stump holes in the burn.
