Just a reminder that I will be leading the work party this weekend on behalf of

NWTA and ODF in the Tillamook State Forest this Saturday (9:30am-2pm).  We will

be focused on brushing the portion of the Wilson River Trail from Keenig Creek

towards the west.  This work is very much needed prior to the Tour de Tillamook

campout weekend.  We will also be installing trialhead signage.

 

Afterwards, I will be doing a ride on Sickter Lars that will include some

additional brush work.  And, then on to Reheer's Camp for a fun ride on the

newly legalized downhill trail.  There are also lots of opportunities to ride

afterwards either on the Wilson River Trail, Storey Burn Trail, Historic Hiking

Trail, Triple C Trail, Gales Creek Trail (portions that are still open that is),

and the other mountain bike accessible trails - could even drive over to the

Outback Trail in Mountain Bike Area #2 in the Coal Creek area near Nehalem if

you wanted to ride and campout for the weekend (I can give directions to you if

you wanted to do this).

 

Think of this as a mini-Tour de Tillamook!

 

Plan to meet at the Tillamook Forestry Center at 9:30am.  RSVP on the NWTA

website at http://nw-trail.org/node/1354.  Carpools can be arranged using the

comment area on the website.

 

Bring clothing appropriate for working outside (including work gloves, close toe

shoes, long pants), sunscreen, food/water adequate for your personal needs, and

your bike if you plan to ride afterwards.  You may also consider bringing the

following tools if you have them: gas powered weed eater (will need to have the

spark arrester on it; and need to have appropriate protective clothing to

operate it during the work party), lopers, and pruners.

 

Thanks and hope to see you Saturday!

Ryan,







I can't make the work party this weekend, but I'm super curious about what's

west of Keenig Cr. (I rode Keenig to Jone's yesterday). I'm also curious

about the new downhill by Reheer's, I've only been to Reheer's once since

the Gail's Cr. trail washed out; what's new there and where can I get a map

or trail direction? I'm also curious about this Coal Cr. area, I don't think

I know anything about it and I'm curious about where I'd find more

information. If you have a few minutes, could you write back and give me

some pointers?







             Thanks,







             Geoff
