This drainage knick has had some of the debris cleaned out of it, but not all of it.

Another partially cleared drainage knick on the WCVT. Note the rutting/trenching of the trail downhill caused by water running down it.

The road running into La Jolla Canyon from the junction of Overlook and Guadalasca. It looks like someone has claimed the sign from the sandwich board as a souvenir.

The top of Guadalasca single-track, where we worked it shortly after the Springs Fire, has come through very well.

On the other hand, the middle of Guadalasca, which was rutted to start with and has had no work done on it for years (if ever) is worse.

The streambed on the left has filled with silt to the level of the trail. On the right, it has been scoured down to bare rock.

This is the same spot as the previous photo on Guadalasca, only from the other side of the stream.
