What a day for our trail crew above 18 road! The MTRA crew worked hard today clearing 34 downed trees, and repairing some washed out section of trail. Due to the area this will be a never-ending endeavor, and therefore the MTRA has adopted these trails to ensure that they stay in great condition for more smiles per miles!

The BLM would also like to thank everyone for respecting the seasonal closure and waiting for these amazing trails to officially open!

Additionally, the Sarlacc Attack mountain bike race will be next weekend, May 9th and May 10th. We highly recommend avoiding the area that weekend. The MTRA will be volunteering on course to help support their participants and show how much we care for our trails.

Here are some photos from today's work adventure, and we hope that if you couldn't make this one, come volunteer tommorow at our 27 1/4 rd desert cleanup!
