[QUOTE="boardbysled, post: 1370120, member: 18596"] I'm gonna bring Pokey's post over from the other thread that I assumed started this thread. Plus, it has pictures, we all love pictures!:redneck: IMHO, this situation looks like too much use, on too wet of a trail. With say 100 rigs a day traveling over this section, it was easy for it to become a mudhole. IMHO, it is most likely that this section started getting rutted out by people with small tires. They most likely had a hard time making it up this wet section of trail. Then, as it became more rutted, the people with larger tires had to spin to make it up it. And it all just went downhill from there. Less equipped rigs made a bypass, and more equipped rigs took the more challenging route, because guess what, It was a challenge. In a perfect world, this section of trail would have been Identified as a trouble area before it was damaged. (I refuse to use the word destroyed, as the only time a trail is destroyed is when mother nature destroys a trail, or a trail being closed is destroyed.) In a perfect world, this section of trail would have been shut down when it was identified. In a perfect world.... We don't live in a perfect world, this is a folley that we have to work around. We can sit here and point fingers, or we could work on fixing this issue. [/QUOTE]
