[pct-l] Trail reports about downed trees

[Trekker4 at aol.com]

Be glad you're not in OR or WA. Last summer I  reported to the PCTA over 200 
trees down in parts of OR, including a 100-200  tree pile that totally 
obscured some switchbacks going down to Sisters Mirror  Lake. I doubt its all been 
cleared. 
    Last Spring, the Communicator reported  over 400 trees down just around 
Glacier Peak in WA. I still can't  decide which of the 3 routes to take around 
Glacier Peak. The PCTA site  doesn't have much info on the Glacier Peak 
progress, or even the basic info  covered in the article. For instance, was the 
Suiattle River bridge rebuild  started in 08, possibly per the article; will it be 
started in 09,  definitely per the article; or has it fallen victim to the 
recession/depression  or other artifacts of the federal government?

I did  Campo to Scissors in mid-January and the one place that stands
out as  having a tree down was at the Fred Cr. crossing south of Fred
Canyon Rd. on  map A6.  There was another tree down south of Pioneer
Mail picnic area  maybe a half mile from the picnic area on map A8.
I will also try to post  this on  postholer.com
