Crib Trail work on Halls Ranch

Feels Like Spring – Trailwork Report

The crew has been working steady on Halls Ranch and Fiddle Creek Ridge for the last couple of weeks. The focus has been brushing, log out and widening really tight old school switchbacks. This week we also cleared down trees off of 1st, 2nd, 3rd and North Yuba Extension. We made it up butcher about 1 mile above the bridge. The snow is melting really fast and with this warm rain things are going to open soon.

Crib Wall Build on Halls Ranch Trail

This was a fun project yesterday. We haven’t built one of these in years. This crib wall is 20 feet long, 5 feet tall and it allowed us to more than double the turn radius of this switchback. Located on the Halls Ranch trail, south side of the Fiddle Creek crossing.

 

This is your office parking lot when you work for SBTS on OHV trails.
The crew is doing great and kicking ass, everyone is stoked to be back on the trail. Thank you for all the support and hard work form everyone involved with SBTS.
