Hard to cut down a tree if you forget your chainsaw

Last minute decision to make a trip up; thought I could cut up the downed trees. Imagine my disappointment when I found I did not have my chainsaw in my clearing kit. On to plan B. Limbed up the trees with the pruners, and then worked on widening the walking trail from the fire lane back to the clearing. This trail was getting grown-in a bit, so it is now twice as wide as it was.

Spent the night and took off for home the next morning.
