As of early March of this year:
The Chetwood trail on the east side of Perham Creek is in fine shape. There is no bridge at the upper crossing. The west side of Chetwoot (between upper crossing to the junction where Chetwoot meets the main Wygant Trail) is a mess per slide activity and numerous downed trees. Bit overgrown. It's more adventure thrash than trail through there.

I am with Oregon State Parks--we have a youth crew who will be bucking out all 90 down logs on the Wygant Trail.

Hopefully, there will be some time to do some brushing starting from the top. Trail has some nice out sloping.

We plan to leave two large root wads due to time and priorities. We hope to hit this with a volunteer crew in the fall or spring.

And I only pulled four ticks off yesterday!
