Wind damage at Rattlesnake

Bob and Alice Roemer cleared three trees at Rattlesnake on Saturday  August 15. The cooler weather made this a much more pleasurable job than it would have been a day or two earlier.

It appears that stronger winds (microbursts?) seem to be prevalent just below the cliffs in that portion of the land.

Near “The Cave” there were two blockages

Bob and Alice also came across one just above the “Cave” that had the courtesy to fall parallel to the trail…rather than across it!
