Subject: Tarbell Timber Sale info update

Just wanted to give you all a heads up about the Polelander Timber Sale, occurring near trail mile marker 22.5 between Rock Creek Campground and Tarbell Trailhead.  They just started road building last week, and have been actively harvesting timber.  There is a log deck currently blocking the trail, which will impede trail traffic, until further notice.  The Contract Administrator estimates that this will only be there for a week or so.  As they are shovel logging, this operation will be relatively gentle on the trail, and the contactors will put it back into order once completed.
