May Trail Daze 2007

You’ve gotta hand it to the Schulze’s. Even with the new addition to the family, Mia, they found the time to host a trail work day on a beautiful Memorial Day weekend. They also managed to convince about 17 of their riding buddies to give up the better part of a perfect riding day just to dig in the dirt. And to top it off, they agreed to work on a trail other than their adopted trail of 3rd Divide. Thank you Chris and Trista!!

Thank you also to everyone in the group who made a HUGE effort removing the inner sough and outer berm on Empire Creek Trail, and worked to establish a 2% out-slope on the trailbed to accommodate proper water drainage. This group produced one of the most effective volunteer efforts by any group who has worked with SBTS. They finished sloughing and berming the lower-most 3,000 linear feet of Empire Creek Trail in just three hours! This group Kicks-Ass.

This work day is part of a larger effort to restore Empire Creek Trail to a sustainable condition. SBTS received a small grant to remove flowing water from the trailbed.

Thanks again from SBTS.
