I walked the SL and the 286 this morning. Wanted to ride so I could also survey Start Hill, but my intuition said otherwise. Glad I walked. Too many trees and too much debris on the trails for biking. There are a few new areas of erosion, but considering the rainfall, not surprising. I do think there are several spots that should be considered for rerouting. The reroutes can be short and a few feet from the original trail. Some of these spots have been worked on several times. For sustainability purposes, it makes sense to rethink how we correct these spots.
