So the parks/rec guys finally finished taking our trail down. Looks like they needed quite a few hands to undo our work. A request to leave the lumber was made and they halfway did...I assume that the parts they left will eventually be nabbed upon further cleanup...so we will have to get in there quickly and snatch it up. They did leave our tool stash though (which I asked them kindly to do).
So here are the before and after shots...
not our trail, but we used it to get to our trail...
the 180 degree bridge (it was quite fun!)
after the city got their hands on it...(niiice)
the berm after the 180 bridge
and after it was "fixed"
we cut off shortly after that to head to our trail but if you continue onwards, you find this gem...
to keep people from heading towards our trailhead, they decided that some living trees no longer needed to be living. great example guys!
okay, so we built a ravine bridge...it was even laser leveled for good measure
now this is what is left
from the on-side..
from the off-side...
There is a hillside that needed some help. We armored the hell out of it and bridged a sensitive area.
leading into the bridge
heading down the bridge
and looking up the bridge
now this is what is left
they were even nice enough to pile rocks for us after finding them in a berm! (it took me quite a few hours to lug those badboys from all over the place)
The real sad thing here isn't so much that we lost a spot to bike. Once we had the ravine bridge and the rocked in hillside with downramp, we started to see more and more hikers frequenting the trail. It was always nice to have smiling faces pass you by... oh well.
