haha Thanks for the insight... I think I'll bring a hand saw with me and leave the chainsaw at home. I don't want any involvement in the slash party!

I think there's enough fallen trees to warrant bringing a chainsaw. Who has been to the Attic/UT this year?? Lots of natural tree felling (rockfall) happened at the Stairway on the way to the Attic/UT this Winter. Plus there's a bunch fallen trees down at Exfoliated that are in the way. Save your arms, bring your chainsaw. And BTW thanks a lot for helping out Dan!
So much rock, so little time
