I'm glad you all enjoyed my Benny Hill parody.

FYI: The axe was stashed on the trail for repairs/maintenance like what was shown in the video. The axe was SUPER dull which is why it took a whole bunch of swinging. Also the trees were way too large for one person to drag around which is why they were cut and then moved off the trail.

It's ours, but I seem to have taken on the ownership of the trail. So yes, I call the trail mine.

The fix started today.

Nice to see you found some time to start repairing that so quickly, reps!

I just thought I should post on here for everyone that the last jump on giant killer has a lip now, so don't go too fast or it'll put you in the berm (it's almost half the speed needed before so I don't want anyone being suprised and getting hurt).

There's a couple of cms of snow at the power lines and a skim on Karpenter but it's drier than earlier this week, for sure. Thanks to everybody who has been clearing deadfall.

Did you get the bigger tree across your trail (lower toad)? I moved the branches off it on monday but didn't even attempt the big tree, and I haven't been back since to check it out.

I arrived at Snakes and Ladders to find another tree had fallen, but this time it was on the teeter totter. Thankfully Tim and Rob built it burly and once I cut the tree no addtional repairs were needed.

I then worked on the ladder which was broken a few weeks earlier. It's now rideable, but still only 80% complete.
