A huge thank you to the unit crews from Shore Acres - Arrow Base for all their work clearing blowdown from True Blue, Drifter and BSB yesterday! They did an incredible job and we are so grateful for them clearing our trails so quickly after the May 28 storm!!

✅True Blue and Drifter are now clear. Be mindful on the lower sections as some raking and branch clearing needs to be done and watch for minor trail changes (stay tuned for more details about an impromptu volunteer work day this weekend).

❌BSB is unfortunately still closed as the bridge sustained major damage from the blowdown and will need to be repaired.

Trail Update #2 after Thursday night’s storm:

✅ Sunset Loop, Sunrise, Upper Inducer, Highwater, Mama Bear, Mr. Moose and H***h are all clear 🙏🏻

🌲 There is significant blow down on Drifter and True Blue (predominantly on the lower half of the trails), as well as BSB. A few trees down on Green Goblin.

Reminder: if you’re out clearing, please let us know where you’ve cleared! It saves us a trip and lets us focus our efforts elsewhere. We appreciate all your hard work 🙏🏻

For anyone out clearing trails, please let us know where you’ve cleared. It saves us a trip and lets us focus on other areas. Also please ensure any clearing is done 2’ back from trail edge.

More updates soon!

Volunteer appreciation post for our trail heroes & trail fairies 🙏🏻

A special spotlight on Don and Karen Arsenault, who have spent countless days this spring raking trails and stacking cut rounds. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to the trails !

And to all of the volunteers putting in the work behind the scenes: we see you, and we appreciate you. Every tree cut and every rake makes a difference🪏
