Sickter lars trail

I spent 5 or so hours on thursday working on sickter lars loop. There is still some work to be done however it seems like this trail has been neglected. If anyone ever wants to help me work on this trail i would be more than glad to drive. i also have multiple tools .  As far as riding is concerned some riders that would like to shuttle with me is always welcome riding DH can get pretty hairy alone.

Helens Fest II - 26 thru 28 August 2011

Helens Fest II is fast approaching.  If you have any questions about the event please post them here and we'll get your questions answered!

Helens Fest is a three day weekend of advocacy and stewardship of a very unique riding area.  There is nothing like it anywhere in the 48 contiguous states.  The event is being held at the Marble Mountain Snow Park on Forest Road 83 in the Mount St Helens National Volcanic Monument, Gifford Pinchot National Forest in south-west Washington.  We operate under a special use permit issued by the Monument Manager.

This coming Saturday, March 12th, I'm planning to get dirty with some trail work followed by some riding at Sandy Ridge. I do not currently have a car, so if you are also going out there, and would like company and gas money, let me know! You can reach me at juliek@nw-trail.org

Thanks!
