Higley Trail Day

It was a beautiful morning for our annual 'Higley Trail Day' down in Colton today. The team spent a few hours working on trails for this winter. Most of the effort was spent leveling-out, widening and digging out stumps on the new trail we made last fall. Last year we essentially chopped out a brand new technical trail for uphill intervals, complete with a banked switchback turn and long sections of unbroken climbing. Unfortunately last winter it wasn't in a condition that allowed for much grooming or skiing (aside from some backcountry powder days), but with lots of shoveling, uprooting and grade leveling we should be able to really make use of it this year.
