Lot’s of work has been done this past month with lots of trail days and cool projects. The trail crew has been mostly on Fromme finishing up work on Boundary and working their way from Expresso to Mtn Highway along the Baden Powell, making it more user friendly for hikers and bikers alike.

Help the builders out and make it a tradition to clear at least one drain every ride, run or hike so the trails will stay fresh and fun throughout the Fall and Winter.
If you see any maintenance issues on the trails be sure to report it via Trailforks! It’s the best way to alert the builders of any work that needs to be done.
And be sure to find a date and time to join us on the trails by checking our Events Calendar.
