Would be a good idea to bring it along. Not sure if we are going to need it or not.

Will most likely be useful for cutting logs up into manageable lengths for retaining etc.

I went for a walk up the track, to have a look at the work that has been done.

Really impressed with the guys that have been up there since last time, as now the tack s completely cleared.

I do think that there are a few areas which may need a bit more thought, as we need to have easy lines. But we will cross that bridge when we get to it.

Give it time people. Cant expect miracles overnight.

And just remember - many hands make downhill tracks get built faster.
