This last Sunday’s trail work day on Catwalk was a huge success! With 26 people that represented every trail user organization, A.W.T.A., S.O.F.A., S.O.M.B.A. and others from Redding and Roseberg made the trip to Ashland to help restore and improve this highly used trail. working from 10am to 3pm nonstop, this large crew managed to smooth out every rut and pot hole, and improve every corner for future sustainability. I would like to thank the goup leaders, Jake, Fish, Wes, and Daniel for keeping everyone going in the right directioin.
AMA would also like to thank our trail work day sponcer’s, the U.S.F.S., SRAM, Truvative, Avid, WTB, Specialized, Kali Protective and the HWY 68 Hillbilly’s (keg o beer from Caldera)

It’s that time of year, when the rain starts and the dirt gets good. It’s also the time when giving back in the form of trail maintenance is critical. After a fun summer of riding our favorite trails they get a bit hammered with braking bumps and ruts in the corners, and some of the soft ones get blown out. However with the rains come new oppertunities to repair and recreat our trails.
So, on Saturday November 1st Ashland Mountian Adventures will host our first trail work day of this fall. It will begin with coffee and snacks at our office at 700 mistletoe rd. off the Tollman Creek rd. at 9am. from there we will shuttle the first wave of riders/workers, bring your bike, to the top of Mt. A for a quick cost down to the hair pin corners of the bull gap trail. The tools will already be at the needed locations for riders to use. We will have staff on hand to direct witch areas are most in need and would like each person to help out for 2 hours. This will return the trail to what it was or even better shape before the season began.
For your efforts Ashland Mountian Adventures will provide a second “free” shuttle and a feed after. We will also be raffeling of some cool prizes from WTB, Specialized and Lezyne. So come out and join in the fun and get the reward of accomplishment that goes along with stewardship.
