SORBA trail maintenance ride!

Mike B., Varorie N., Steve D., and I met up this morning a little after 10 for a day of riding and trailwork on Squirrel Gap trail. The route for the day: 66 jumps->S.Mills->Mullinax->Squirrel->O&B to Horse Cove->Cantrell Creek->S.Mills->66 jumps.

Thanks for the pic Valorie! 

Trail work done:

Big hole near Mullinax: Rocks were very hard to come by, new benchcut, rock armoring, covered with soil.

Inside turn Wash: Drainage cleared, BIG log moved, rock armoring.

Big Tree down across trail: Now= Pyramid of logs.

Plus scouting to Squirrel at Horse: The USFS needs to get a 36" chainsaw certified technican out there....

 

Fun ride everyone. I was happy to finally get out there for a trailday. 4 folks with mountainbikes, 3 sierra saws, 3 folding shovels, and a few hours to be in the woods sure can get a lot done.

1 - Sorry I missed this ride/ maintenance day. Had to be home by 1pm and with a 10am start didn't think I could be very productive. Got a good ride in with Mater. Pics to be had soon. 6 flats between us! (Comment this)
