3 Miles & 3 Hours Hard Day's Work

Went to clean off a portion of  5 miles of cross-country single-track at Fort Lewis area #21 today.  This area has been closed for the majority of the summer due to helicopter maneuvers. I only made it through 3 miles of somewhat overgrown trail today.  Most of the overgrown vegetation was from blackberry shooters,  scotch broom, and fallen trees left from last winter's ice storm. I only lasted for 3 hours before running out out energy from sawing, riding, sawing, snipping and [repeat].  Took out 6 small to medium logs that were laying across the trail.  There are only 7 large diameter logs remaining that will need a chain saw.  Speaking of saw.  I saw no one today on the trail.
