Hey Ya'll.
There's been a lot of questions about the new machine built trail (aka, Unemployment Line). Well, the WMBC and Polygon have a new recreational use agreement in place and we can resume the work on the mountain now. Unemployment Line is about 85% done (my estimation) and we're gonna have a big trailday this Sunday to try to get the final checklist items knocked off.
Come on out and help if you'd like to see this sucker done and opened to the public.
Cheers,
EB
Details below from Hawk:
Now that the WMBC has a new stewardship agreement in place with Polygon, we've been given the go-ahead to resume trail building activities on Galbraith. We are throwing a trail work party this Sunday that will focus on completing work on Unemployment Line.
There's several major projects that need to be finished in addition to jump shaping and revegging. There's a couple natural spring zones that'll need rock and drainage work, the entrance ladder feature/filter needs to get built, and several jumps will need to get shortened or lengthened.
Meet up at the upper Padden parking area around 9:45 for a 10 am roll out. Bring your bike if it's nice, water, your favorite tool, and appropriate gear. If you can carpool or ride to the lot or trail please do as parking has been packed lately. Hidden Wave Board Shop is our sponsor for this build day and will be providing a light breakfast and something tasty for lunch.
Looking forward to a big turnout. There's a lot of interest in seeing this trail opened up. Come on out and help make it happen.
Cheers,
Hawk
