“It’s much earlier than we thought we were going to be able to open that trail.' (via thknwco)
After torrential rains and debris flows in Glenwood Canyon left massive rockpiles last summer on the steep trail that leads up to picturesque Hanging Lake, it was difficult to imagine the hiking experience returning to normal anytime soon.
“The trail experience is going to be very similar to what it was,” said Jamie Werner, the White River National Forest stewardship coordinator for the National Forest Foundation. “We do not anticipate any changes in the difficulty of the trail.” They won’t be using road graders, though. No heavy machinery is being used. Everything is being done by utilizing winches and hoists that offer mechanical advantages. That’s how they moved Bridge No. 1 back into position, and it’s how they will move boulders off the trail above Bridge No. 2.
“It’s a good way to stay strong and in shape,” Murphy said. “I don’t have a gym membership, for a reason.”
