Orange reroute trail at SME is Finished

Hello all the new trail that bypasses all the muddy sections on the bottom right side of the orange loop is finished. It begins immediately after the large elevated boardwalk and ends before the climbging switchbacks on orange. It has 2 longer sections of "roman road" to address seasonal wet spots that are elevated rock bridges. Back in January we put the bridge in that spans rodale run and some boyscouts put a railing on one side of the bridge 2 weeks ago. The old section of orange will be closed and blocked off in the coming weeks due to its constant state of muddyness/erosion. Here is a image taken from the new bridge showing some of the rock work to avoid a seasonal wet area. Its about 40 feet long and 16-20 inches wide.
