Just wanted to point out that the trail work done on Desolation is amazing. Descending the trail on 7/8/06, it looked like a war zone with all of the blowdown on Carrigan's back slope. Especially on the steepest parts of the trail, where an errant step would end up costing you some hurt, I can't imagine hacking away at blowdown with an axe. It looks like it was done recently, and I would love to know how many people were on the trail crew that did that work, and how long it took.
Having run a chainsaw and driven a skidder for a living in a previous life, I feel like I know hard tree work when I see it, and this seriously impressed me. I thought I had worked in war zones before, even in the WMNF, but what I have done is child's play compared to this type of work.
