I am trying to gather some information on getting some 'freeridish' trails or stunts built on a nearby mountain, that already has xc trails. I'm looking for groups, clubs, teams, or anyone who had built this type of trail. I need examples of successfull trails building programs, and proposals, so I can talk to the forset rangers and the town. Legal documets... if you have had that experience, or you can refer me to someone, please post.

thanx

Try to get in touch with Brent Thompson (sp?) whose the trail manager at bootleg canyon. His story with that place is quite an unusual one but he's also in charge of the best pubic DH trail network in the country. I'd consider it a model at least.

Good place to start, also contact IMBA.

ther is a guy jake on mtbr (Roaming Oregon) that is semi responsible for getting some land in oregon (falls city) dedicated to bikes only and they have xc, dh and stunt work as well, it would be worthwhile to contact him....

could you give me that number i need some good techniques on how to get some here in ashevill not only dh and stunts but xc trails as well. anyone who lives here in asheville knows that the parkrangers at bent and in the pisgah forest have shut alot of our trails down. (bent creek just closed 25 miles to be exact) :angry:
