Two trees down across trail at the bottom of the hill before it forks - one small, one large. Is going to take a chainsaw to clear.

Cleared enough of the downed trees to make the trail passable with a little climbing. Can clean up the rest with a chainsaw.

Several interlocked trees down totally blocking path. Most trunks about 8" diameter. Needs a crew to untangle.

      Straight downhill, rocky, muddy. A means to an end.
