Rocks don't belong on mountain bike trails and we need to make them as smooth as possible. There is too great of a risk of someone hitting a rock the size of a pebble and getting hurt. My goal is to make sure we pave the Wasatch Front and Wasatch back. Then once that is done I'll make sure Southern Utah suffers the same fate on trails like Grafton and Zen.

Old line is not closed anymore so pick your poison.

Re-route is much better. The old rock road washed out with deep channel cuts and loose baby heads. I don’t mind loose techy but over the years this old section lost its ride appeal.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
