Zwift - Coast to Coast in Watopia

Finally finished clearing out the felled madrone. The madrone were all dead standing hazards. As the firs grow up past them they lose their light source, die, and then rot from the roots up. Selectively thinning allows unhealthy (or dead) trees to get removed in a controlled manner which allows other trees to maximize their canopy space while allowing enough light through for a healthy understory. This is particularly important in clear cut forests that grow back as a dense monoculture like this one. As a bonus, folks can walk through the trails without fear of these hazard trees.
