I’m fortunate to live where there are plenty of trails for mountain biking, hiking, running and even cross-country skiing on the occasions we actually get enough snow. Now Medicine Wheel is building another trail.
The new trail is currently being called Zipline. It will be an important connector between Section 16/Red Rock Canyon/ and the Bear Creek Main Trail.
I frequently connect between those trails. Now it means riding about a mile on a narrow, paved section of Gold Camp Road. It will be much nicer to ride singletrack to make the connection.
This Sunday, May 31st, is a trail building day for Zipline. No previous trail building experience is needed and all tools are provided. I’ve worn blisters building trail so you may want to take a pair of gloves.
There are 3 different shifts starting at 10 AM, Noon or 4 PM. Please send an email to Jim at jim@medwheel.org so he knows you’re coming. See the Medicine Wheel page for more details.

are you working a shift tomorrow?
I’m going to try making it for the 4 o’clock shift. I hope it isn’t raining by then.
