🎃 And don’t forget about our Pumpkin Carving Contest!

🏆 1st Place – $100

🥈 2nd Place – $50

We have such an amazing little community, and I know we can pull together to make this Halloween special! Whether you decorate a trunk, donate candy, enter a pumpkin, or just bring the family out, every bit of participation matters!

Did you know that nestled out in the Sierra National Forest on the Sierra Vista Scenic Byway you can find Madera County's oldest standing residential building; The Jesse Ross Cabin. Big thanks to the U.S. Forest Service - Sierra National Forest and the HistoriCorps team (including many local volunteers) for the second renovation effort that was just completed. The cabin looks great. Come see it for yourself.

Turn your Griz experience into something even more rewarding!

Grizzly Gravel Camp Trip!!

Aug 13-16 above North Fork/Bass Lake in the cool mountains!

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while, so let’s give it a go… come for all 3 nights, or just 1 night, or just for one ride & no nights.

No $$ required (unless we camp in a USFS campsite requiring a fee, & that will be determined based on the number of people going). I normally camp up off of Sky Ranch Rd, at the Soquel Meadow overflow camp area, right on Willow Creek in a nice shady, cool area & I don’t pay any fees. There is also the Soquel Meadow USFS campground right next door too, but they charge a daily fee of $41. The pay site requires a reservation made at the website recreation.gov at the Soquel Meadow Campground page. The Overflow site right next door is free, but it’s first come first serve. Both these are easily accessible by car, & all paved except the last 1/4 mile.

We’ll do rides Friday, Saturday & Sunday mornings. The elevation there is 5000’, so it should be a lot cooler. Rides will include climbing to Cold Springs & lunch at Jones Store (the only except CA$H!!). We may ride to Fresno Dome on Fridays ride. Sunday will be a shorter ride which will include riding through Nelder Grove to see the giant Sequoias there.

PLEASE MESSAGE ME DIRECTLY at [email protected] if you’re planning on camping. This ride/trip is open to those registered for the Griz & those not yet registered, it’s open FCC & GBC members. EVERYONE RIDES AT THEIR OWN RISK!!!
