Tunnel Trail Rut Repair

Wet soil makes for the perfect condtions to get out and do a little trail repair. The "rut" on upper Tunnel Trail has been an eyesore and an obstacle to those who frequent the trail for the last year. The rain created the rut was deep enough that people created a secondary route along the upper hillside.

The solution, remove the weeds filling in the actual trail and then fill the rut with rocks and soil to make the trail usable again.
