If you are heading up to Horse Lake in the near future, you may find the Lone Fir trail a bit out of shape. The Chelan PUD bladed a 1/4 mile of the trail, while trying to access their transmission line. The blading starts near the picnic table where the transmission lines cross the trail and ends just north of where the Homestead Trail begins.
