    Default Large tree branches blocking blue trail at Dorrance

    My Buddy and I rode the green and blue trails today (Thur 9/17/2020) and there are large tree branches blocking the blue path in two different areas that definitely warrant a “caution” status for the Dorrance system on the main page.

    Got the trees removed this evening. Didn't have time to check the black loop though. If you can be more descriptive of their location when reporting it's really helpful to the people who go out and remove them. Otherwise we may need to walk an entire trail to find one tree (ie I walked 3 mi tonight carrying 20lbs of saw and tools to find these).

    Will do. Thanks for taking care of them. Is posting here in the forum the right place to report? I just joined a short time ago so I’m a newbie. ��*♂️
