it's not really there - all the Moose trails are sanctioned - this one not yet - so it's not really there! Hit up the normal TW, JG on the Rocks, SLF, Toothless, BillyGoat, ROS -

ZEP & THE BaSE at COP

yes, i have yet forgot that sarcasm just does not translate over into the BB's - i should know this! I do know where the park is, i do ride there, but really where is the "awesome" part of it? ROS is better build, flows better and all private build - same with Jean-Guy - superb and now that the www.mmbts.com is SRD approved - it's all legal and supported! If there was only a lift or shuttle service ...

Super Berm opened today! Still kind of wet, but it's going to be great.
I was thinking, the best way for riders to help is to leave messages at Guest Services explaining how much you enjoy the trails, that they are the reason you come to KHMR, etc. This will get us funding in the future so we can do more work. Spread the word.

The brake bumps on Blaster are a tough one. The only thing that will help is if riders stop braking, but that's not going to happen. We have the issue under consideration, but we don't have a solution yet. We are too busy finishing Super Berm - should be open on July 7!
As for helping, a couple guys with pulaskis and rakes on a volunteer day can do wonders.

The Ministry - "Jesus Built My Hotrod".
Trail's ride-able - the top section is complete enough to ride and have fun - may need a berm, but that will wear in and/or get built.
You can ride it, then follow the raked sort-of trail into SLF to the boulder/ladder/skinny - the bottom of that stunt. Shuttle away!
