Proud that the LCTA was part of this trail day. It's great to have all users working together. Thanks to the NRTP and USFS for putting this together!

After nearly 10 years of work, the first segment of the new trail system at Canfield is officially open. This trails represents a collaboration with the USFS-IPNF and Northern Rockies Trail Project. Thank you to everyone who has lent there time and $$$ to this project. Without your support, this day would not have been possible.

As this segment is open, the Alliance looks forward to the continued support of the USFS-IPNF, Northern Rockies Trail Project, and the numerous donors and volunteers who make these build project possible.

Now, go out ride it. It is a good one...and support us in the construction of the next 3 miles.

We had a successful day clearing Bernard Peak Trail. LCTA board members and volunteers spent three days and well over 100 hours total in this year's effort to clear the trail. There were hundreds of trees down with overturned root balls doing a fair bit of damage to the trail.

A big thanks to all who made it out to help!

Our next trail workday is scheduled for July 26. More details to come.

If you get out on the trail, let us know in the comments how it's riding!

Help us name the new Canfield Trail!

The Northern Rockies Trail Project Trail Crew is putting the finishing touches on this week, but we need to name the trail. Put your suggestions in the comments and we'll send out a survey with the top few results.

The new trail connects Trail 29/Big Tree to the top of Cancourse. It is downhill from 29 to Cancourse but can be ridden both ways. Make way for climbing riders on your way down!

Bernard Workday, Sun 6/27 !

Join us to continue work on clearing Bernard Peak Trail this Sunday. We are working hard to clear this trail after the fires from a few years ago. We had our youth crew out there 2 years ago clearing and doing some dirt work, and did a workday out there last year. It’s been a rough winter for trails with the windstorms this year and need another workday to clear the trail for this season.

We are planning to have 3 groups. One group will pedal from the bottom with a sawyer or two. Those who aren’t sawyers can bring hand saws, trailbosses or packable dirt tools. The other two groups will drive to the top and hike down. One will be a group of sawyers cutting trees. The second group will be following up and clearing the logs and branches and doing some dirt work to fix root holes. Again, bring hand saws and dirt tools if you have them.

Meet at the Twete Road trailhead. Hope to see you out there!
