All, The trail we all worked on January 7th is completely cut in from top to bottom (it is actually rideable now and if you havent, you should definitely check it out). This trail day will be to "smooth out the rough edges" and do some finishing work. I am posting for Jarret....... Jarret, please feel to add or correct anything that I have posted incorrectly. Questions, let us know.

Whats in it for you?:
- For those that enjoy the XC trails at the park this offers a safer option to climb to the top of the mountain as opposed to the current route of climbing the paved route and sharing that route with vehicle traffic. This new trail will start/end at the Archery parking lot and work its way up the mountain ending at the top of the mountain just past the trailhead/parking lot on the right side of the road.
- Feel good by contributing to the creation and maintenance of the Paris Mountain Trail System a lot of work goes in keeping the trails active of which we each like to enjoy as bikers and/or hikers.
