The big tall dead pine tree below the Tick wall has blown over. It fell parallel with the trail and broke apart on a switch back in the trail. We cleaned up what we could, but really needed a hand saw to get the big limbs out of the way. So next time you guys head up or you know a group that is, you might want to take a hand saw with you.

Tree Down at Tick Farm
Brent Anderson headed up to the North Rim for some climbing the week between Christmas and New Years. In addition to 40 degrees and "perfect" rock, he found that one of the large dead trees in the amphitheater had fallen. Thanks go out to Brent for the following report,
