All Access MTB Trail Begins

All Access MTB Trail Begins

The NSMBA, working collaboratively with the DNV, has begun Phase 1 to create a barrier free All Access MTB trail on Fromme.
The NSMBA would like to thank lululemon for their support and funding for this project.  We would also like to recognize the support from North Shore Bike Shop for their efforts to reroute the mid section of the trail as well as ongoing improvements part of TAP.

"As part of lululemon's  sustainability  initiatives, the metta movement is a program aimed at supporting grassroots community activities that encourage people to live active, healthy lives."

Phase 1 begins with a retro fit of Bobsled.

Lower Griffen Ascending Trail

Lower Griffen Ascending Trail

A new climbing line has been created on Fromme with collaboration between the DNV and the NSMBA.

Thank you to Rocky Mountain Bicycles for hosting a public trail day in October.  Facebook pictures here.
This is to be used by riders exitting from Immonator instead of descending on the Baden Powell.  To clarify-all riders are to please use this to climb to exit at water towers.
It is an ascending only trail and is not built to handle downhill traffic as the corners are climbing corners, therefore too tight for descending and therefore will require heavy braking which will destroy the trail tread.  Please help us work together as a community to keep it climbing only.

Please exit by the water towers.  Please follow the new trail signage that leads bikers to the new trail head near the water towers.  We ask for your cooperation with this to ensure continued positive relations with area residents as well as the DNV.  

The area to the west has been deactivated by the DNV to alleviate sustainability issues, but primarily due to the infringement on private land.  Please stay out of this zone as the forest rehabilitates.

Thank you to Devon Campbell for the creation of the map.

Please note: the water tower trail on the map refers to the one on McNair, not Mountain Hwy.

 

Bobsled Re-Route

Bobsled Re-Route

On Friday night I was getting ready for Saturday’s trail day. I prepped my waterproof gear expecting a rainy day.  Luckily, we woke up to a pretty nice, foggy day. A fantastic turnout of 25 eager volunteers came to help with the new Bobsled reroute.
