A Herculean Task Summary
In October of 2007, a freak windstorm passed through the main equestrian-access trail in Oregon, which led to the PCT and the Three Sisters Wilderness Area. The storm blew down many trees along the trail on the west side of the cascade. Approximately 1.5-miles of the trail was ruined with nearly 400 fallen and uprooted trees. Wayne Chevalier, Trail Crew Supervisor for the Mckenzie River Range district of Oregon's Willamette National forest, was assigned to remove the logs from the trails. He turned the clean-up process into an event to also help other people. It was a big success.
Interesting Detail: They finished the entire thing in only 60 days!
One Fact: In 2009, the PCTA renewed its "memorandum of understanding" with the U.S Forest Service, the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management and California State Parks.
My Question: Have there been any other major incidents along the trail since this one?
