The FVMBA (Fraser Valley Mountain Bike Assoc.) is putting something together to get into the shops. In addition, maps of all the Valley mountains will be available in their local shops.

you probably rode giant killer, hoots, then hiked a bit back up to shotgun which takes you out to the parking area.

gutsploder has a good map as mentioned.

You're wrong. :)
Goldmine = Cabin trail.
Gold is just long gone. Too bad really.

Yeah I have been riding cabin for a few years, just rode it yesterday and looked up to see the "Goldmine" sign.

There seems to be some quads on the trail a fair bit of damage. :(

really? i rode it last weekend and didn't see any evidence of quads. now on the access road that leads up to (and past it) - sure. but as for the trail itself, it's beat because it turns into a river in the winter.

it's always had two names as far as i can recall.

Quads did a fair bit of damage mistakenly going down cabin and then having to winch back up once they hit the first bridge on the trail. The corner just before the first bridge was literally destroyed and is barely rideable compared to what it used to be.

Have a look at this video that documents the two quads that did the damage. Make sure you view at least until 2:18. It shows the damage.

Probably an honest mistake but it's crazy what only two quads can do to a mint trail.
