Interesting read.
Where?
People that have been riding in Crested Butte a long time have actually HAD this happen. Just look at the Wilderness Areas that just about surround that town...
That was the Hick Hucksters who got busted building trails in Wilsons. Rangers surrounded them with their guns drawn all SWAT style.
I got a tube of stuff from the Doctor. Its pretty much cleared up now. Thanks for your concern.....I've long suspected you might be gnome.
Not sure I wanna say, my name is probably still on a list somewhere.
The only instance I am aware of renegade trail builders being prosecuted is at Pinnacle. Buckingham (Larry Glazer) was trying to develop it for The Catholic Diocese and they played hardball. I will assume it was there....
No, it predated pinnacle. When I was in Rochester there wasn't much of anything there, just some basic trails and a handful of jumps, from what I heard it got built up big time after I moved away.
Intrigued. It is pretty built up. Rob and Brandon and the kids build some cool stuff I recently got a ticket for being on Pinnacle property. $50. Same cop who gave me the ticket asked me to help get a injured rider out. The judge let the fine slide. Officer Dimascio is cool with me now. Parking on the bottom is the deal breaker...
You know I helped build that?
I did not know that, but the incident I referred to happened where it's located.
Every trail that was built in there. Is now a legal trail. Rob the guy from Pinnacle has gone on a building spree. I think you are off the hook by now.
This was the freeride building days... '04-'06
And that seems to be something that IMBA's trying to forestall, if you can wade through all this.
