I had 8 days of bad luck in getting to the Mid Fork. Will be launching  another try very soon. The Frank Wilderness rangers told me that, the  under-high-water trail that I wanted to use along the upper MF, is traditionally  not only under water in spring, but also becomes washed out &amp; impassable  each year. They said with frustration in their voices, the trail crew tries to  fix it each year, but their work never sticks. Rangers said, this is the only  annual washout site along the\u00a0entire MF trail system. It is also a major access  for back packers.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"Comic Sans MS\">I would like to propose to SBBCH, that we file a  proposal with the FS to do a permanent fix to the wash-out site. It would  require hauling in some bags of\u00a0mortar, post mix cement &amp; rebar. Of course,  there is plenty of rock available at the site to do the envisioned rock  work.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"Comic Sans MS\">To get to the site, drive past Banner Summit a  few miles, turn left at sign for Seafoam Area. Go 1.5 miles\u00a0to Marsh Creek TH.  Go down Marsh Cr. trail about 6 miles to confluence with MF &amp; establish  camp. Go another 1\/2 mile down the MF to work site.\u00a0The work would take about 4  guys about 1 day to complete. I have all the tools &amp; experience required.  I\u00a0would volunteer to be project leader. I would need the help of some guys with  reasonably healthy backs. I see this happening early summer of  2011.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"Comic Sans MS\">Jake<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am unexpectedly home for a few days to regroup.
