Looking to the Future

 While we are stoked with what we have been able to accomplish so far, we are only just getting going.  Future planning and development is in the works!  First we are going to focus on building more high quality trails at Swasey Rec area.  We decided on this for two reasons.  BLM is extremely wonderful to work with and is letting us take the lead in planning and developing diverse trails on their land. This means we could start building new trails in late 2020.   Second, is that Swasey is already the most popular trail system around, so new trails would give visitors more options to keep things interesting, our dollars to smiles will go a lot further.

With that being said, we don’t want to stop building once we are done with Swasey and we feel there is a huge need that Swasey isn’t fulfilling.  That need is big mountain descents with the option to shuttle them.  An area we see the potential for this is on Sugarloaf Mountain above Lakehead and we have begun working with the Forest Service on plans for that.  

We are also actively helping the nearby communities of Weaverville and Hayfork plan and build new and exciting trails!  Weaverville’s new trails will offer the opportunity to be shuttled while Hayfork’s trail system is going to be completely new!  It will offer an estimated 12 miles of fun single track that will not only encourage an active lifestyle for locals but draw visitors to their quaint little town.
