Gold Hill Chewelah - Saturday trail work party - 9AM start
Come help develop new trails and maintain the trails we've built over the last couple of years.
We'll be honing our trails for spring and summer riding!
This includes polishing and honing the new trails on top of Gold Hill that were dug with an excavator last season.
Have an idea for a new trail? Come with your ideas, let's get flagging and digging at a future work party! We've only just begun to develop this destination's potential.
Help us build (and maintain) Eastern Washington's newest biking destination.
Background on Gold Hill Community Forest - Gold Hill is a 400 acre community forest acquired by the Chewelah Valley Land Trust (CVLT) just a few years ago. Located just north of Chewelah (the north side of the Golf & Country Club) in Stevens County. Trails are in the early stages of development, so there will be everything from brushing, digging, raking to develop new trails to brush trimming and vegetation management on existing ones.
CVLT & Evergreen will have some tools on-site to get this job done—but if you have a favorite trail-building tool (e.g. shovel, rake, Rogue hoe, McCleod, loppers, or similar), please bring those along. Gloves, sturdy shoes/boots and safety/sun glasses strongly recommended.
Logistics:
- When: Meet at 9:00 AM - stay for an hour or two--or longer if you like.
- Where to meet: The new Chewelah Community Forest parking lot ( https://goo.gl/maps/ZFViFhjrTeLRqFV3A) near the Chewelah golf course.
- What you should bring: Work gloves, eye protection, sturdy footwear, and your favorite trail-building tool l if you have one (don't forget sunscreen and water!)
We look forward to seeing you!
