and has a chainsaw, Espresso (Moja) needs a bit of tree clearing. I moved as much as I could today but without a chainsaw my efforts were limited. If someone cuts the downed trees I'll clear the cut pieces once I hear about it.

Oh and nice work on the entrance!!

Doesn't the actual sign at the trailhead say 'espresso'?

The trail's original name was Expresso

The original builder named it this as an 'express-way' down the mountain…

Just an interesting tidbit of history. Not sure what is up with signage?

I think it's been a long time mix up. The old NSMBA map refers to it as Espresso. The DNV, the NSMBA and everyone else clearly refers to it now as Expresso. Someone here must know the whole story behind mixing up the name on the old NSMBA map and that sign.

Sounds like the same reason lower C-Buster is now called Applicator.
