Fall Trailwork Day – Sept 22
Oh yeah, the high country trails just got the first dose of rain in months! And we’ve got a trailwork day on September 22 for our ongoing Surveyor’s Ridge re-route project.
We need your help to finish the project this fall! Come on up to the 44 zone on Saturday, Sept 22 to help us get it done.
The new route adds single track miles and reroutes the trail away from The Dalles Watershed Pipeline, which is about to get replaced, thus disrupting the original Surveyor’s route. READ MORE about the Surveyor’s Ridge Reroute Project and check out project map.
