Somewhere about 1/2 way between the Stairs and Tunnel 19 I ran in to this blow down.  The top of a huge eucalyptus  fell across the gulch and the tips of the branches were over the trail.  There was no choice.  I had to clear or turn around.

After about 5 minutes of cutting and tossing I was about 1/2 way thru and it looked like this. 

Another 5 minutes and I was all the way through.  Not the best job, but for one guy...pretty good I'd say.
