A friend and I took a trip to Corral Canyon today and did the Los Pinos Lookout loop. There was a massive tree blocking the trail somewhere on Skye Valley Road. My buddy tried clearing the path with his winch, but the tree was too heavy. It is located about 2 miles from the big rock going counter-clockwise.
After we turned around we did the entire loop in the other direction. I had a really good time and got some practice using 4WD and the rear locker in one spot go back up Espinosa trail (didn't need too, just wanted to give it a shot).
Here are some pictures...the gate to the lookout tower was closed so we did not go up there.

That's a big tree - chain saw size.

Yea, chainsaws are not on the Xcursion check list though ;D
That was the first time he used the winch, so I think he just wanted to give it a go.

Maybe I need to update the list.
That's a pretty big piece of wood. Might be a bit much for my little folding Sven Saw, or even the full-size axe that lives under the rear seats.
Too bad the fire lookout was closed, the view is great.

Primer cord would work
