Super sized trail building, camping, and riding weekend!   If you've ever helped at L.L. Stub Stewart State Park to build the mountain biking singletrack, then this weekend is not to be missed.   We hope to be ready to open the upper trail loop to the public during this event.   

Saturday - trail work party (placing trail signage? finishing work?) followed by celebration (CAKE!) back at conference center at Cabin Village.   CHECK-IN for trail work group at Welcome Center parking area by 9am.   We should be back at Cabin Village for Hot Dog BBQ/Cake by about 2pm (all are welcome whether having worked this day or a past volunteer build day).

Small group of people are camping Saturday night (fee is waived for volunteers working trail!) - most camp sites already reserved - but there's hike-in first come/first serve camping spots available (some plan to camp at hike-in area).

Bring snack, water, and work gloves.  Bike is optional but highly recommended to ride 1 mile out to project location - and park doesn't like more than couple vehicles driving down trail so may not have room for all in a vehicle (this one will be down Banks-Vernonia trail from Welcome Center then hiking for .5 miles to project area).  We can transport your hiking shoes along with tools to spot where you'll be able to change into boots and stash bikes off in the woods near where project will be - your call on if you are comfortable doing that - but so far we haven't lost a bike to the wild animals... ).

2010 Status and schedule of NWTA build days at L.L. Stub Stewart State Park

Submitted Tue, 02/16/2010 - 3:12pm by Joe Rykowski

Last night, the adopt-a-park agreement was presented to NWTA board of directors by Parks & Recreation ranger and trail manager Steve Kruger.   The 2010 agreement and associated project plan is being reviewed by board members currently with expectation that by early March a signed agreement will be returned to Oregon Parks & Recreation Department (OPRD).

Should be noted that this agreement is first of its kind under the new OPRD draft policy for engaging proponent organizations as trail construction partners.  In the past, they have only entered into adopt-a-park agreements with proponent groups for trail maintenance activities.  Understandably, it appeared that the NWTA board was excited to have this opportunity to enter into a level of collaboration with a land manager which showcased the mission to help build mountain biking trails.

John Joy and myself (Joe Rykowski) will remain as co-trail stewards for this project under 2010 agreement and will be reporting to Tom Slovak, the NWTA Trail Care Director for 2010.

Mt. St. Helens - Ape/Plains of Abe

Hey everyone, I have yet to ride the Ape Canyon - Plains of Abe trail at St. Helens.  My schedule never seems to mesh with Dave Anderson's.  Anyone who wants to join me are more than welcome.

I have posted this as an intermediate level ride, well that's what I consider myself, because the length of the ride won't suit a beginner. And I also hear there is a great climb at the beginning, wahoo!

Let's meet at the south Gateway (south) Transit parking area at 8am to carpool.
