The 'big rain' caused big run off and created unique rivers through the property.
The leaf litter that gum trees are renowned for, as well as fallen branches, ended up bunched and in some weird and wonderful places, and showed the high tide marks and route of the make-shift rivers.
All of the bridges have been located, and a few hours with a chainsaw and rake should get all the single trail around the front nine rideable again.
It is not all bad though; the down hill trails have been swept clean by the current, and now are buff and smooth; and the natural flow of the rain has been identified so that the trail devastation can be prevented when the next big rain happens; and the dams are full.
Time to drink beer and celebrate I say!

poof
ReplyDeleteGood opportunity to fix or create trails when the soil is soft. Install drainage where necessary. "Sustainable Trails" my friend.
