Re: Silver Moccasin Trail
Welcome aboard! Again I don't have any direct info. My guess would be there are some down trees in higher elevations (Chantry Flats) and beyond. Some Ice on Williamson and approaching Baden Powell The November wind storm really took down many dead trees in other areas affected by the Station Fire. C...

Yeah I took those photos. If I'm remembering correctly it was on Yerba Buena Ridge
And I concur with my colleague's cogent analysis
I'm seeing a hint of claws in the top photo, some dirt has fallen back into it but it seems to be there
