On Sunday April 29, our NSNEMBA Trail Project at Willowdale made improvements in several areas thanks to the help of 15 great volunteers. The braided north end of the “Chevette” trail was relocated out of mud and ferns to a more sustainable upland location, now joining the woods road at intersection #2. Much time was spent closing off and naturalizing the trail sections that were eliminated. Existing trails in that vicinity were groomed a bit. Some treadwork/benching was done on “two bridges” and the next singletrack west. We hauled out the remains of a bridge that we replaced last year. After some food and drink, about 10 of us tested out the improvements on what was ideal day to both work and ride.

Trails have been walked, cleared, will be marked, and some hit with a leaf blower. Who and what shows for vendors, demos, etc. unknown at this point, but no snow left and hope many have an inclination to ride and support our fundraising effort for Essex County Greenbelt and the Tompson St. Gateway Project.
