i cant believe this is all in Glenrock! trails look awesome. will definitely throw an xc rig on the plane next time im back up there!
Short answer, yes there is a plan. We have a few hundred page trail audit from World Trail and will be systematically working through it as budget and other constraints allow.Out of interest is there some sort of a plan of attack for which trails are going to get a makeover?
Part of the current works is to train up volunteers to be able to do work on the trail system. Not major works like we have just done, but more the tidying up and ongoing stuff you talk of. Funny you bring up BJ's, we walked it today and discussed it with NPWS and IMBA and there will be some work carried out in the short term and some modification in the medium term.[/quote]Also interested in who's going to be looking after maintenance of the trails long term? eg BJ's is starting to get a few dud lines developing around eroded sections etc. Would be a shame to see this get too out of control.
Send me your email address and I will pass it onto the guy handling most of the build days while my back is out. Also keep an eye on the notice board at Gunclub or the GTA forum.Is there a mailing list I can sign up to so I know about upcoming build days? I'm notoriously hopeless at checking web sites for things like this but if it's sitting there in my inbox I'll be onto it.
At this point south of the lagoon will be out. Long term I would like to think we can demonstrate that the trails in the north work and that we have a case for the reinstatement of Bus Stop. What we have achieved so far is a huge jump forward for the NPWS, but I am fairly confident that if we can demonstrate it all works, that we can review sections like Bus Stop.In the overall plan is there any chance the Bus Stop trail will be retained? TBH I reckon this is about the best bit of single track in there so it would be a huge shame to see us lose it. Other than a couple of dodgy corners it also seems to hold up pretty well to the traffic. Bus Stop followed by the climb back up the fire trail to Scout Camp Rd is one of my fav combo's.
great work guys, can't wait to head up there again soon and give it a crack.
Just echoing these comments. Love your work guys.Great work fella's, really leading the way in successful partnerships, outcomes and solutions, looks like a bright future is on the horizon.
