Backup plan (depending on weather and dirt conditions) is to continue work on new descent traill — name TBD.
Meeting Location Rocky Point Mid Gate / 20955, 23999 Rocky Point Rd, Scappoose, OR 97056
Rocky Point Road is closed from 30 to the main lot. You will need to take Skyline and drive down Rocky Point Road to the main lot to avoid the closure.
Summary of work goalsIf the Skeet Chute clear cut isn’t too wet, we will be working on a new black descent (Honkers) that has already been roughed in. There is some debris to still be cleared, some minor benching, some berms to build, and general tuning of the line.
If the clear cut is too wet, we will work on clearing corridor for another new descent farther in RP.
Specific work focus
• General improvement of roughed in line / debris clearing as needed
Tools needed
• Shovels
• Hoes
• Steel Rakes / Sturdy rock rakes • Hand saws
Gear SuggestionsThe clear cut is very steep and slippery from recent snow/rain. Sturdy hiking soles will help with traction. Be prepared for mud and make sure you wear good gloves. Bring a backpack or bag with water, snacks, and anything else you may need. Will food be provided?Yes, Lunchtime! Curry lentil soup (vegetarian) and homemade Sourdough.
Will we be riding after?
Yes, if weather permits
Notes
We will plan on meeting at the main RP lot for our pre-work briefing, then hike a few minutes to the trail or drive in depending on the work area.
