The NSMBA will be fixing up a few spots on the mountain that need some attention. This thread is to post your suggestions for different projects you'd like to see completed on Fromme. Presently, we are replacing the wood platforms on 7th Secret down to Krinkum.

you know what would be SWEET.. now that we're talking wish-list.

lower griffen, where it intersects the baden powell, you ride around two trees in the middle of the trail with a whole bunch of pretty high roots and woody goodness to get to a trail that leads to the bottom where it links with the BP again, I see that as the proper route lower griffen takes.

ANYWAY.. that rooty goodness on the baden powell.. it would be SUPER cool to build a little woodwork over the roots to keep the trail flowing straight through, even a little gap jamp over the roots? hehe

just thinking out loud here..

A couple of the switchbacks on Krinkum Krankum are missing some (a bunch of) key rocks. Would be nice to see that line see some love after the awesome woodwork done last year.

If it's a Fromme wish list, can we have some parking above the gate?

I wasn't going to mention the improvements until we got some rain to stabilize the gold, but great work on 7th. Good to see it getting some lovin'. Kudos to the trail workers!

BTW - There are some wasps at the sharp right-hand turn that used to be blocked by the orange fencing. Trail workers beware!! :damn:

Don't know Nimby, but this sounds like something I could get behind.

There's an annoying hole on McNair that needs filling in if you guys get a chance.

Bring back Air Supply, I loved that trail 4 years ago. Would be good to get some jump practise in before heading to Whistler.:D

Another vote for Espresso. Great line that's got lots of natural tech, but some bad erosion and the stunts are bordering on 'iffy' if not beyond that already.
