Come join us for a weekend of trail work up in the Fox Peak area. We’ll be spending the weekend based out of Tornak Hut and working on rerouting the one nasty part of the Fox Peak ride route (Adams Gulch Loop Tr.). If you’re familiar with the route, we’ll be working on the portion where the trail comes into an open field and turns into a nasty, rutted, skid-a-bike descent through the entire field.
The Plan:
We’ll head up to the Tornak Hut on Friday evening. Gear/food/supplies will be shuttled in to the Hut. We will ride in from the Baker Creek parking area.
There is room in the yurt for @ 12 people. Everyone else will need to bring a tent.
On Saturday, we’ll ride mountain bikes to the work site. We’ll use the Rokon to shuttle in tools, gear, etc.
On Sunday, we’ll hopefully finish up and leave by early afternoon.
Cost:
$20 per person for the weekend. WRBC will cover the rest.
Food/Beverages:
WRBC will be providing food. We’ll probably do burgers/brats, pasta, or Mexi for dinners on Friday & Saturday. Saturday & Sunday breakfasts we’ll have yogurt, fruit, bacon, eggs, hash browns, coffee. There’ll be sandwich fixins’ for lunch.
We’ll have a keg of PBR, Bud, or similar……
If you need something to eat other than that, you’ll need to bring it yourself. If your beverage of choice is something other than the highest quality low grade American Beer, you’ll need to bring that too.
What to Bring:
You’ll need to bring a sleeping bag (and tent, if you’re not in the hut), sunscreen, bug dope, riding gear (for the ride in and out), work boots, work clothes, work gloves, down jacket, rain jacket, and casual clothes for lounging in the hut.
The weather forecast is wide open, so plan on conditions from rain/snow, to sunny & warm. We’ll hope for the latter!
