Trail Night - June 22
When: June 22, 6:30 p.m. until we run out of light or get tired. Please try to be on time. This event goes rain or shine! If you're running late, just go directly to the work site.
Where: Meet at the Station Flats trailhead. From there we will walk ~1km to the actual work site.
What We'll Be Doing: Work continues on a re-route for a wet section of Tom Snow. A fair bit of trail has been cut already, but there's still more to be done.
Why: Riding through bogs sucks.
What to Bring: We'll be in the woods, so wear appropriate clothing. We recommend sturdy work boots or hiking boots, work gloves, long pants and a jacket. Dress for the weather. Bring some water and a snack if you like. Remember - anything you pack in, you also need to pack out, including any recyclables or trash. CMBA will be providing tools, but if you have a favourite chainsaw, mattock, Pulaski, rake or Mcleod, feel free to bring it. Shovels will not be needed.
FAQ
Q: Is this legal?
A: Hell yes! CMBA has a TFA to work on several trail projects in the area, and this is one of them.
Q: Can I bring my bike so I can ride the trail afterwards?
A: Sure thing, but the trail might not be 100% ready by the time we're done.

It just gets better...
We had another great turnout tonight! Many thanks to our volunteers!!!!
The skies were mostly friendly to us, with only a little bit of light rain now and again to keep us refreshed as we hacked out some more trail. Things are really coming together nicely. We will likely run some extra Monday night trail sessions, but probably not until after Canada Day. We'll keep you updated!
