Razors Edge
August 8, 2020 @ 9:00 am - 3:00 pm
Let’s get back to work on the Razor’s Edge trail project! This is our 4th year of constructing 1.9 km of new trail to connect Razor’s Edge with the Quaite Valley Connector. We’ve completed 1300 m of trail and aim to build the final 600 m in 2020. If you like building new trails, you will really enjoy working on this project which has a flare of slab, grade variation, and interesting flow.
PROJECT DATE: August 8
MEETING TIME: 9:00 AM (project work day from 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM)
MEETING LOCATION: Park and meet by Highway 1 next to the Quaite Valley Gate.
