NWTA invites you to a Sandy Ridge trail maintenance day , Saturday, January 7th, 2012.

Come on out and help be a part of making the trails you ride even better.

Expectations?  A few hours of trail work and then on your bike by 1PM.  We'll get you and your bike up to the work area and then you can ride afterwards.  Never been to a work party?  No problem, come and we'll provide instruction.

Here's a link to the  Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Sandy Ridge Trail System map that describes the planned and completed Sandy Ridge trails.  The map now includes the Quid Pro Flow trail, as well as the 338 Loop and Hide & Seek.  For more information about these trails see the BLM Website.

Meeting Spot: Homestead Road Gate off of East Barlow Road (Google map)

Meeting Time: 9:00 AM

What to Bring:  Boots, gloves, sack lunch, water, weather appropriate clothing and bike for riding afterward.

Trail building tools will be provided, but feel free to bring your favorite tool if you have one.

Directions from Portland:  Head east on Highway 26 to the second E. Sleepy Hollow Drive sign(start looking to your left when you see the Windells sign).  Turn left on E. Sleepy Hollow Drive and go down to the second street which is E. Barlow Trail Road.  Turn right on E. Barlow Trail Rd.  Continue across the bridge, and down for about a 1/2 mile, past the first parking area/restroom on the left, until you see National Forest Service Road 14 (aka Homestead Rd) on your left--  you will see a yellow gate and small parking area.
