Clear Creek Trail Damage

I went out to ride the Clear Creek Trail and inspect the damage from a severe storm that hit the area on June 12. The trail is in some seriously bad shape right now. I think it's going to take a couple of chainsaw crews and several people with leaf blowers and weed-eaters to repair all the damage. There's also some erosion on the trail in a few places and a lot of "face slappers" out there. The only bright spot is the giant mud hole at the far end of the double track has finally dried out, so we can at least work on installing a culvert or small bridge there.

The Clear Creek Challenge (SCRS #7) is out there on September 20, so there's still time to get the trail back in prime race condition.

That's some damage, for sure. Hope they get the trails taken care of for the race.
