Impressive turn out from the Washinton (Grand Forks, FSA, Kona and Contour contingents), add 2 Squamish locals, 7 Whistler Tour ops, couple of patrollers and Lee and Sharon and of course Jerome and Worcas new trails director and it was an uber productive day.
Well.. hopefully the Whistler locals will manage to fill the huge void being left behind by the guys from WA as they are doing the other thing Duncan was passionate about and riding their bikes tomorrow.

We made pretty much the top of the climb.. its down from here! bring your energy :)

I hope everyone who knows about this trail now can respect Duncans intent to keep tires off the trail until it is finished.

work weekend #2 coming up….stoked to see things get finished up, I'm hoping to get up a couple evenings this week with Jerome and a couple other guys.

Second Duncan Mackenzie Memorial Trail Day June 9 and 10 next week.

Come out and sweat for just a few hours to remember Duncan and other friends we lost this winter.
Pass on the word to others might not be included in this email.

With the project 2/3 complete, a good push this weekend might connect what is going to be a signature trail in the valley.
Come lend a hand to remember and get the job done.

0900 Saturday or Sunday it will start. Park in Function at Interpretive forest and walk up mircowave climb to find your way.
Work required is all ground work, you will need gloves, long sleeve recommended and any ground digging tools.
Plenty of tools are on site but if you have your own mark them with your name and bring them in for the day.

See you next weekend!
