trail	date	description
Lower Ewok	Oct 24, 2026 @ 4:26pm (America/Edmonton) 13 hours	Overall, pretty good. It's wet leaf season though.
A loop through the forest	Oct 21, 2026 @ 6:19pm (America/Edmonton) Oct 21, 2026	More trees down
Sideline	Oct 18, 2026 @ 3:02pm (America/Edmonton) Oct 18, 2026	It's still passable in either direction but now there's 3 spots where you have to carry your bike plus a tree down right near the west end. Watch out for the coal seam.
Hustler	Oct 18, 2026 @ 8:42am (America/Edmonton) Oct 18, 2026	the large tree leaning over first or last boardwalk depending on direction is leaning heavily and swaying allot likely to come down soon.
Gold Digger	Oct 18, 2026 @ 8:41am (America/Edmonton) Oct 18, 2026	multiple trees down throughout.
