Winter Trail Work Program in full effect
Posted December 6, 2008 11:39 AM
The month of December has blessed us with dry weather, allowing us to do work that would otherwise be unfeasible at this time of year. Third Divide has been receiving the majority of our focus this last week as we prepare the trail for winter. We off-sloped a few hundred feet of tread, installed drains, filled braking bumps and constructed a forest service mandated reroute just above the spring. The reroute provides better line of sight and should help reduce some of the user conflicts between motos going uphill and mountain bikers heading downhill. The new section of trail flows much better and will shed water like a duck.
Anyone interested in coming up to volunteer for our winter trail work program will be housed and fed. Contact Us if you're interested in participating. Email us or call 530-289-2766.
