kevbone Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I was told today that the trail up Beacon was wiped out by a huge falling rock. Hope nobody got hurt. I gues a huge part of the trails hand rail is all mangled. That will take some time to fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevinoregon Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Even with nobody up there we still amost were hit by falling rock. One missed my partner by only 4'. Must have been Ivan above us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevbone Posted October 28, 2007 Author Share Posted October 28, 2007 Any of you guys top out? Anybody see the trail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobinc Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 thinking of heading out there tomorrow. Anyone hear of an update on the trail status? It's not essential to get down via the trail but jsut wondering where the slide occurred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 came down the trail y-day - it'll be another week i'd imagine? several huge boulders smashed a bunch of stuff out but they're obviously hard at work fixing it up - i'm curious to see what becomes of the big rocks that are now fixed in the middle of the path Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JosephH Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 The actually drill, pack, and blow up anything big. They general have to do it at least once per year. They've already moved quite a bit though Erik didn't give me and ETA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
