[pct-l] mechanical clearing of trail

[Dan Welch]

I guess it depends on what you mean by "mechanically cleared".  If they are
bringing in bushwhackers, I see your point.  However, the difference in end
result between a chainsaw cut log vs a hand-operated cross cut log is a
little more subtle.  I doubt most would ever know the difference...  

BTW - it sounds like you're personally involved in trail maintenance.
Thanks for the work you do!

<<  I've seen a lot of trail corridors that have been mechanically cleared.

They look like a 50-vehicle multi-lane car wreck. Tree limbs that look like
they've been hacked off with a baseball bat, debris everywhere.

No thanks. That's not how I want to maintain my section of the trail.  >>
