Nationals MTB Course @ Canmore Nordic Centre
July 7, 2018 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm
About the Canmore Trail Alliance
The Friends launched the Canmore Trail Alliance in 2016 to engage trail users and local land stewards in trail maintenance and building in the Canmore Area.
When: Saturday from 9:00am-1:00pm
Meeting time: 9:00am
No sign up required
Meeting location: Canmore Nordic Centre, meet at west end of Day Lodge by sign that says ‘SKI LESSONS MEETING PLACE’
What to expect: The Canadian National MTB Championships return to the Canmore Nordic Centre July 21-22 and there are some new sections of trail in the works. We’ll either be working on building new trail (yellow on map) or doing some maintenance on the existing nationals course (purple ovals on the map).
What to bring: Supportive footwear (i.e. sturdy hiking boots), gloves and bear spray. We’ll walk from the Stadium to the work area(s). The level of effort will range from medium to difficult and include hand tool work such as digging a new trail, removing duff and earth with hoes and pulaskis, and shoveling/raking out rutting.
Volunteer Agreement Form: All volunteers will need to fill out this Volunteer Agreement Form.
