9AM - 2PM

Come out and help build trail at this new state park before it opens to the public. The trail work will provide access to the Meadow Dome which is one of the closest climbing areas to the new trail head. Space is limited so if you are interested please sign up with me via a PM. The park will provide bagels and coffee in the morning and participants will have the opportunity to help clean up some of the routes recently developed in the park by providing a little bit of traffic on these routes. This will take place in the afternoon after the trail work is complete at around 2PM.

Please come prepared to work hard with plenty of water and food. Tools will be provided, but participants will need to bring sturdy foot wear and gloves.

This is an awesome opportunity to show off the climbing community to the park before public access is allowed later in October. Come get dirty, and check out what this new state park is all about. There's something for everyone.

Maybe this will help bring the psych level up.

Looks sweet Monty! Wish I could join you & help with the work. My daughters 16th Bday that weekend - maybe you can show us around after it opens? When is it going to open to the public?
If you guys have another trail day I would love to help out.

Yeah that looks like a fun climb in a great setting.

Bummed you'll miss it Glen! Hoping to make this into an annual event as there is plenty of trail to work on up there.

They will have a grand opening sometime next year when all construction is complete.

Fixed Pin Publishing will be putting out a fee guidebook to the area, which will be available as a download off their website. We are hoping to have a rough draft of the guide available at the trail day so come show your support!

Got the day cleared. I'm in. Can't wait!!

If anyone wants to carpool I can pick people up on Deer Creek Canyon Rd at Wadsworth or anywhere along Deer Creek Canyon. I like to call this area "The Lance Lot" or "Lycra Land."

Edit. . .I have nothing against lycra, Lance or cyclist in general.
