New trail construction has started

[crash2]

On tuesday they started the next 2 4x4 trails and I went up and inspected--they are getting better and looking at the start compared to the first one they are learning/improving..

Here are the rocks they got from down at the pit--they are nice and big..

The long trail starts right at the entrance to the first trail.

They have maybe 1/4 of the long trail cut and they did a pretty good job of keeping the trail corridor tighter and actually took flat areas and gave them some decent elevation changes.

 

[crash2]

The other trail that jets off about 2/3 down the trail and cuts over to the gravel road out of the new trail is cut all the way through. They again did a decent job of keeping the corridor tight. This trail also has a nice elevation change so it will be interesting how they accomplish what we have been telling them.

I am excited to see how this all unfolds and hoping to see it done within a couple weeks...

Looking good Michael and nice to see how pleased you are with the progress. Guess I had better find some time to get over there. Maybe this weekend.

That is one of the things they have to learn--we have given our input on it and will have to see how they actually address it...

Better to have steps forward than nothing or backwards :awesomework:

I was out cruising today and was on reiter road. The gate was open so i drove in and checked out where the new trail is. Those boulders should make for some good times. Most of them were at least half the size of my car if not bigger.

Good to know. I'll pass the word along.

Are they going to skip on the gravel base this time .

If they put enough of those rocks in there and make it look like a dry stream bed that would please a lot of people, not placed on the side of the trail.

Not at this time. But they are going to try some different surfacing on the trail

We can always hope. The major problem is the cost of the huge rocks. Trail design will be a process that will always be evolving as they try different things. Some will work and some won't. But our input is being listened to.

So, anyone down for a rock acquisition fund raiser?
Bound to be tons of leveler type, big machine usin hillbillys around here..

Hows about if a bunch of rocks just ended up in the parking area for them to utilize?
How would that go over?
cheers
