I went up the Cable Line Friday and saw the flat spot in question with the many logs. Nothing seems to have changed recently. While the logs are a potential slip hazard, they did enable me to skip across the large muddy area without getting wet. All the logs could be removed in about ten minutes by one person who didn't mind getting his hands dirty. This does look like an excellent site for a small project. An elevated half-log tread like those in several places on Cougar Mountain would be ideal.

I was just up this way last evening. Saw a fellow cuttin in a drain to the mud hole just beyond the log choked mud hole. As far as the mud bog in question, there is plenty of rock just up the trail to use as fill. A rake and bucket is all that would be needed.

Good God! Has anybody notified the local power supplier about the exposed primary??

Now you did it, some tweaker will dig it up and sell it

Hide them for sure! There is lots of gravel just up the hill. I will encourage my tiger hikers to clear out those logs. Maybe I can haul a couple of buckets up there and just leave them until it's fixed.

Slowly but surely the mudhole is emptying of logs. At least twice this summer some well-intended but uninformed person has gone out of their way to pile more logs in the spot. I finally pried the last big one loose on Thursday night, but it's too heavy for me to move to the pile by myself. If you are willing and can get any of the remaining ones loose, please help out and chuck them into the pile, which is down the trail a bit, where the old West Tiger 3 trail used to cross. Thanks!

All I know is the old route that switchbacks throught that small bowl to the east of the thigh burning last steep stretch between the knife edgey flat and the one where the logs are, is nice and lonely now.

I was getting ready to look for this thread and here it is up top. I pulled about 20 out tonight. The last 6 will need some kind of tool to dig them free on an end so they can be pulled out. This needs to be done before the mudbog is in full swing and people start throwing logs in it again. I will see if I cant get a couple of 5-gallon buckets up there on thursday. I might even have time to bring a shovel that day!
