Forbush Corner Updates Trail System

Fri, Sep  21, 2007 - By Dave Forbush

Lots of trail changes to enjoy this winter. No more turns in the bottom of the big valley, many of the tight corners have been eliminated and the trail will be lengthened.

We changed the start to Rollercoaster from the steep climb. Also, the first valley "U" turn has been eliminated and several other places on Lil Coaster have been improved. Tomorrow, we will eliminate the Valley "U" turn from the Rollercoaster part of the trail and add a k or 2 to the front of the trail. Then we will move back near the Chateau and widen the radius of the turn on the se corner of the system.

There are several other changes to that part of the trail but we will have to see how much time ($) will have been involved to get these changes made. Still very dry here as you can tell from the photo below (taken August 22).

Aug 23, Spent the day with the dozer and, as planned we eliminated the valley turn from Rollercoaster. We also added several more Km to the trail. The sharp turn at the south end of Lil Coaster has been widened. Hope to get back near the Chateau tomorrow and widen the sharp turn there and do some other changes.
