folderimage folderthumb IMG 2496  What the kids like to call a Bomb Cyclone came through earlier in the week. Let's document the downed trees. IMG 2497  So far nothing blocking the trails. Give it time. IMG 2498  A two-fer. This is just far enough from the trailhead that most hikers opt to turn back here rather than scramble over. IMG 2499  The other side. Better lighting for photos?
IMG 2500  Not much further down the trail. IMG 2501  Major domino effect here. IMG 2502  Maybe here too. IMG 2503  The very end of Sequoia Bayview trail. This seems like the blockage, until you get through it. IMG 2504  This right here is the major blockage. IMG 2505  Should have gone up above to the parking lot. He thinks now.
IMG 2506  If you go through the parking lot and try and drop into Cinderella, you get this blockage. IMG 2507  Upper part of the trail has many obstructions. IMG 2508  You could actually roll through here unimpeded but I wanted to get the shot anyway. IMG 2509  Hike a bike through here. IMG 2510  The last blockage until the final switchbacks. IMG 2511  In the one stretch of trail where you could build up some speed, there's this forehead-high surprise around a semi blind corner. I removed it after taking the picture.
IMG 2512  About yay high. No bueno. IMG 2514  The last problema. IMG 2515  Sinawik loop near The Lookout IMG 2516  Bike pr0n. IMG 2518  More Sinawik loop. IMG 2519  Sunset trail.
