Today, CP led a trail maintenance/ride at Borderland State forest. . A total of 9 people showed up, including Quo Fan, If-rider, Comtom1, Johnny D, myself, Zack, and Carol. and Later on Berkshire_rider would Join us. There were 2 trees that had fallen on Bob's Trail that needed to be taken care of. They were too close together to be ridable, so we removed one, and cut a sally line in the other. these are a Mix Of Pictures I took and Quo Fan Took.


Here is one Quo fan took of me hopping over the larger of the two.



Before we cut ou the trees, If-rider tried to cross over both logs. He made it over the first, but not the second. He is between the two here.



Here Is CP firing up the chain saw. and you can see how the trail looks before



CP playing lumber jack.



We built a pyramid over the log, and test rode it both ways. This is the finished trail. we also put a lot of debris to slose the go around line that had formed

Multi use trail... has to be non-biker freindly too.
Bingo!!!! We have to deal with the Horses and Hikers. and since it is State owned land need there permission too.


Plus there had already been a go around forming that we closed up.


But after we finishged building it , and we rode we decided it was too easy ,so we put a nother log on top to make it a little more challeging.


and as for the chainsaw , we stashed it in the woods after using it , and picked it back up on the way out
