Wayback is a return trail. It was cut in around 2016. On June 6, 2020 it qcquired the down hill rout of Hematoma hill to make a re-route around an area that was starting to fill in with water and silt after some levee work was done. It also affected a bridge a little further down and silted in the creed raising silt about 6" above the surface of the bridge on one side. That was also fixed on June 6, 2020 with two 10" breakaway bridge pieces teathered to a tree.
