Lynn Woods
Trail Maintenance - 2010
Project Location: Lynn Woods
Project #: LYW20100509
Date:
05.09.2010
On Sunday May 09, the second Lynn
Woods trail maintenance project was completed in record time. Eight
volunteers attended this maintenance event to continue work on The Ridge Run
Trail. The goal was to finish building a 50 foot section of trail that
included some new technical features utilizing the natural terrain.
All eight volunteers work hard digging
and pulling rocks just as in our last project to build up these technical
trail features. The original trail line was maintained running over a rocky
section of trail and then making a sweeping turn to exit the area. The new
technical line installed runs over the top of two exposed boulders that are
buried in the ground.
On the uphill side of the trail we
installed a berm leading into the entrance of the first boulder and created
a secondary berm that leads you into the second boulder. The combination of
these additions adds a new level of challenge and flowy fun to the Ridge Run
Trail. This trail is now peppered with berms and technical rock features
that make it one to session a few times over.
I want to extend my personal thanks to
each individual (listed below) that took time out of their busy schedule and
volunteered to help complete this project. With out this assistance from the
riding community, much of the trails we ride would never be maintained. I
look forward to see everyone again in future trail builds and or maintenance
projects.
