Here are a few from my yesterday’s route. Not many folks seem to be going on Friggin Middle. It was not easy to follow in some places.

Today I cleared the orange trail's blockage(s) referenced by the last set of pics in @MarioGed post just above, #542. Thanks for the excellent intel BTW. I operated from the RT517 parking lot and just swept that little peninsula. There were additional bonus blockages along the lower leg of it.

Without getting into too much detail, my left knee has been giving me a lot of problems recently. My knee is very angry with me today. I might need the other sawyers to keep on top of things till this situation sorts itself out. stay tuned.

I've got a rear rack and other stuff coming this week. Working on pannier bags to to carry stuff. I'll text you to get updated maps.

Yeah, there were few more obstacles on the orange switchback trail and few on the white trail, but they were somewhat easy to avoid or ride over so I did not stop to take pictures. I cleaned up a few spots that were doable by hand.
Thanks for taking care of the trails @chainsawer and @Teutonic .

Here’s what I came across in a little loop in Allamuchy/Stephens. I was able to clear 4 or five smaller one’s with a folding saw. Starting to get leafy out there.

Bill and I cleared tree in IMG_1798/1799 in post #946. #8952 was gone in post #942. We also took care of the trees below with the hand chain:

I got these two targets today, and a few other tune ups. The before/after pics corresponds to the blue circled waypoint (@Robin post #941). The knee not cooperating so I had to stand down on the others nearby...

Please be advised that I’ll be on a Chainsawing/Mt. biking hiatus for month or two. I’m having an orthoscopic knee procedure on Thursday Nov 13. Asking all the chainsaw fairies to step it up in my absence. For everyone else, do what you can with your hand saws. Thanks!!

Thanks. I should be able to start getting out again for trees next weekend...possibly after work this week. I rode around yesterday and today without the saw. Pulled a bunch of deadfalls off the trail. One pretty large but barely moveable one on cardiac bypass. Finding mostly a lot of broken off smaller ash and general debris
