Trail Crew Update

September 2022

Building bridges, new faces and praying for rain…

 

The hot dry weather continues, and we still are having a tough time throwing dirt! Got a little tired of hiking those sprayer packs in, so the crew focused on a few wood projects to tide us over until the next rainfall. Digger, Marcus, and Tom put a ton of work into replacing a bridge on Ladies Only on Fromme. Marcus and Tom hopped over to Seymour and followed it up with some serious amounts of rock armouring, cribbing, and a new jump on Pingu with special guest Joe.

We said goodbye to Tom, our summer crew member, and welcomed Bishop back onto the crew. Trail dog Nelly did her best supervising from our gold holes and ensured only the most primo dirt was thrown!

Fingers crossed for some precipitation in the forecast so we can fix all that sand that someone’s been throwing on the trails…

Happy riding!
