Picture update from recent work

Here are some pictures of the recent work over the weekend.  We are really making some progress towards having a rideable loop.  We have started on two bridges that needed to built before it can be ridden because they spanned very rocky unrideable sections of trail.  Both are nearly completed. The one by the entrance just needs a few more rungs, and it will be good to go.  This bridges has a cool "dirt topped" bridge that was made by building a box frame, filling it with rocks, and then topping it with dirt to finish it off.  The other bridge is at the opposite end of the trail, and spans a small rocky ravine.  All it needs is the rungs put on it.  It will have some  challenge to it due to the exposure on the right side.  A big thanks to Doug and Tony for helping out on their day off, and to Brock and Sean for helping on Sunday.

Stay tuned for a big workday soon. 

Picture update

We have begun working on the features at the entrance to the trail.  This is a bridge that you ride up to get to the trail that takes you to the drop zone. It incorporates some of the rocks we have all over out there. 

Stunt Building

Construction of the ladder bridges and wooden features, that will really make this trail what it is, will begin Feb 19th. We'll be out there all day augering holes, and setting posts for the ladder bridges. Big things happening this year so check back for updates!

First Feature Built!

The first feature of the SMP Freeride area has been built. This is an intermediate level bridge/table top jump. Buttery smooth.

It was built by a local eagle scout and its burly! Thanks to JoCoPRD and the eagle scout (name to come) for getting this going.
