Chainsaw Needed.

Last nights run was more of a clear up operation as the number of fallen trees and branches have made a lot of the routes impossible. The start of the run came to a quick stop as a tree blocked the entrance through the bombhole run. We cleared some of the debris but still had to detour around the trunk and headed up the path toward the start of Rocky/Rooty only to be stopped by another tree at the entry into the woods. The 5 of us managed to haul this one out of the way and cut back towards the reservoir and voodoo where we met others out on a run who told us there was a tree blocking the entry at the top of Rocky/Rooty(Not the one that we cleared). At the end of voodoo we went down the embankment to the waters edge and up the path toward v/notch + the climb up through the rhododendrons where we met a total block with 2 trees across the path which we climbed around and made our way up to the top of the hill only to find another one blocking the path. We then left the reservoir to head up snaky, and guess what? yep, another tree blocking the way. After a short detour we headed across the moor and did Jackies ‘root’ and then the full circle of the new(ish) rollercoaster ride which was totally clear, riding well and was good fun. It was 9.15pm by this time and so we headed home avoiding the blockages that we knew about. Hopefully the council will clear most of the paths but we may have to clear some of the routes ourselves. Who owns a chainsaw?
