Lots of downfall! Dead Horse-Elelehum Trail open to Forks Patrol junction

It was a good start. On May 31, we got the Dead Horse-Elelehum Trail (T255) open from the southern trailhead to the Forks Patrol Trail (T452) junction . It was no small feat. After three years, there was a lot of accumulated downfall, including several large, shaggy, old spruce that required considerable disassembly. We actually continued beyond the trail junction on both trails, but there is still a lot that remains to be done.

Aside from all the debris, it was a pleasant hike along a series of small, high altitude lakes.
