Trail blocked at Vaughn Hills/Moen

Trail blocked by two large white pines and smaller fallen trees

Thank you to trail users that report fallen trees. This blockage was mentioned by a few people including users of the https://boltontrails.org/report-a-problem-2 webpage.

At least two big white pines had fallen across the trail leading south up the valley from the Moen area. Larry Kunz, Jeff Bryan and Gordon Taylor looked at the situation on Sunday 9 November 2021 and concluded that although the biggest trees were very large, the volunteer trail maintainers were up to the task, so they met again on Monday morning and cleared the path.

This was a big job and took 3 hours.
