Nanaman,
your profile indicated you had recently moved to the lower mainland hence my
thought that you had recently moved here. Severed was far smoother in the past
than it is now, as were most trails that have seen little or no maintenance in
their life, they were not built as chundered chutes, they evolved into them
through erosion.
20 years ago there were no beginner trails on the Shore one had to ride out at
UBC or Stanley Park.
I do agree with you and do not think all trails should be smooth, fast and
flowy but at the same time the general chundered messes that most old trails
are in are not sustainable with the increase in riders - TAP is addressing
this as well as legitimizing riding on the Shore by getting most landowners to
be somewhat supportive of what were previously illegal trails.
