High of 69 & 40% Chance of Rain. Sounds like a good day to build trail. Still on?

I am snagging some tools and will be there,, either meet at the bike shop in eville. by 10 am.. or head up on East McCarty Road. I have a maroon ford f150. see you there.

Thanks for everyone who showed up. Perfect day for trail building. Mesa still not done, but we got lots of new good singletrack dug in today.

Very excited to check out the new Mesa trail when completed!
Props to all who have helped!

I am from Rochester and will be travelling to Eville this summer to ride.
Can you tell me the approximate location of this new trail? (in relation to existing trails)

Thanks!

it's a "loop" off of Eagle.. will connect up to the Eagle trail at two locations I believe, so if you ride up eagle from the bottom,, you will see it to your left once up on top of the grand climb... if you park up on top, you will see it off of eagle trail to your right...

I am sure someone will give you a better sense of where it is and how long it will be....

MESA work day in e'ville, this saturday at 10 am.... I still have the tools from Bill, so I will bring them down...

Mesa trail day outcome... up on top of the hill most of the woods had about 2 inches of snow , the roads were mushy in a few spots. we had to clear about 8 branches off of eagle on our way down to mesa...we are guessing that many more are down..along the trails.... we cleared sidewinder, dead dog and a bit of merlin,, most require simply pulling them out of the way,, but pruning saw, loppers or machete is helpful....

although we had a slightly smaller crew, we did the work and ate the food like we were double the number...

I went riding in Eville yesterday and spent a total of at least an hour off the bike pulling trees and branches from the trails. There was only one I could not clear. For the most part, the 35 miles of trails I touched were in great shape!

Got it...thanks!!

Was having trouble finding a map online with the Eagle trail on it. Mine says: "Proposed Eagle Trail" - but then I saw a user track with a steep trail in that same area - so that must be it.

We usually park near the South Pale Ale - so we will be working our way over to Mesa through Merlin/Dead Dog/Eagle.
We love Eville!

Thanks again!!
