Hilltop Corridor Expansion
A new way back to the top of Hilltop!
This year the club is investing $15,000 into our trail development projects. We have been working hard this summer on flagging and waiting for approvals to construct a new 1.7k machine built intermediate trail that will connect the bottom of Hilltop back to the top. This new trail will bring us into a new section of Trowbridge Forest with lots of side slope for us to build on, there’s even a nice lookout!
Proposed Intermediate XC Connector Trail
We are currently waiting for our final project approval with the city and hope to be able to start clearing the corridor towards the end of next week. Keep on the lookout for more trail builds starting to show up. We will need lots of help clearing the corridor so we can start machine building. We will then need volunteers to help with hand finishing similar to last year with conveyor belt, fingers crossed we’ll find more dirt than rock this year.
Kids Trail Expansion
No one likes to ride on grass!
The tbaytel sponsored skills trail is getting an extension this next week that will continue the trail from it’s current end. The extension will continue the trail out of the woods onto the grass following the woods to connect to the crushed gravel path. We have gotten approvals to use machine building so that we can have Precambrian Natural Service Trails Inc come back and cut the line into the side slope.
We will then bring in our trail crews to do the finishing work and finish up the trail. Stay tuned for some more trail building days!
