The worst of the erosion along the entire corridor section of the trail

This bridge received the worst damage of the 5 along the corridor

A more open and sandier view than before August 20

A thick layer of sand, courtesy of an eroded hillside, needed to be plowed off the path

Another bridge out, another steppingstone crossing restored

Another more open view, the least disturbed area between Park and Century

Not sleeping elephants.  More sand.

The last set of steppingstones....

....before the path veers left toward Century Avenue
