I didn't know I was allowed use a shovel, I'll get in there and try to clear some of the pits and slappers in the next few days.Face slappers like whoa. Deep puddles like whoa. I will get out as I can over the next few weeks, but anyone with a folding shovel can drain puddles as they see fit.

Depends on the situation. Generally I will try to dig a channel to lower ground so it won't collect water but if that's not possible I would think filling would be the answer. If I can't figure it out I will ask someone more knowledgeable and do what they say.I didn't know either. What's the technique for clearing? dig a drainage channel? Fill the center?
If reasonable, create a path for the standing water to flow off the trail until the puddle is completely dry. Then fill the cavity with dry soil from a few feet off of the trail tread. The idea is to make any new rain want to shed off the trail vs sit on it.Depends on the situation.

I gotta get me one of those hedge trimmers.no gas powered shovels.
But battery powered hedge trimmers are fair game. Have at it!
Thanks all.
I just got one, looking forward to trying it out!I gotta get me one of those hedge trimmers.
I am thinking about trying to do a TM session if anyone is interested in helping in the next day or so, ,ostlikely in the 7 or 8am.
The concrete bridge keeps getting the tubes that go underneath it clogged with debris and I was thinking about bring some tools and trying to clear them out so that we dont get spill over during the next big rain
Anyone down? I figure it should only take 30 minutes or so with 2+ people with some stone rakes, maybe a saw and crowbar
Also does anyone know where I could park that would be close to the stone bridge? I am probably going to be walking to it.
