There is this low spot in the trail just past the new skinny that was created after the tornados that has been OK in the past. However, the combination of the wet spring, the increased usage due to the COVID-19 Pandemic and the fact that people won't let the trail system dry out after a heavy rain, this section needed an armoring.
I pulled out as many flat rocks as I could find, including one really big one to cover the big wet spot. It needs some work.
I also armored this low point on the original part of the Gussy that was closed for some time due to trees blocking the trail as result of one of the past hurricanes. The is a big rock right next to the trail. It's not pretty but it works for now until I decide whether or not to reroute this section all together.

It looks like you might have blocked the flow of water with the armor if. Also, those rocks look like they were just placed on the grind. Shouldn’t they have been dug in to match the level of the trail so it is not a safety hazard (tripping for hikers or over the bars for bikers)?
