Thanks for the heads up. My email has been sent as well.
I live in the area and use those trails frequently as a casual loop or to access other trails.

How does a buffoon like Vandeman even find these articles? What a maroon.

Debate? Bikes are made for riding not pushing.

I've never ridden the west side trails before but hope to do so soon… where is the best place to park and climb up? Looking at the map I would guess that Stonebridge is the most popular climbing route?

yeah up stone bridge or Scotia creek (steep dirt Rd beside danimal North) , or that dirt road by danimal south then peice of cake a la mode and danimal middle are good to access some of the lower trails. Could park at rainbow Park since danimal North and beaver pass finish over there. Or just ride from the village or wherever you are it's not that far. You could go on the shoulder on Alta Lake Rd but I would only do that if you're really crammed for time or something

If you are really enduro, you will park by the mailboxes at the bottom of stonebridge.

That is the best use of the word "enduro" I have ever heard.

Pain is temporary; quitting lasts forever.

Nice linkup. We were going opposite directions at Wedge of each other. Good thing you didn't find my stashed beers in the river after that route. Well played.

Stayed away from the park this weekend. The Mrs. and the boy rode park yesterday and it was busy busy busy.

Saturday before the thunder showers, I took the boy up to Upper and Lower Howler. He trooped it up the climbs. Nice trail surface improvements after 19mile Creek. Still steep. Still love the final slab climb to Upper Howler.

This was his first trip down Howler and he only had to scope 2 sections and then rode the rest blind just following me. His new favorite trail, now displacing High Society. It's just so long and continuous, especially with all the new single track link-ups that take your right down to Rainbow. Nice buffing of the lower part of Howler, removing most of the slidey marbles. Running fast and furious.

The boy even took a go behind the point and shoot lens.

Saturday evening, I blasted from the house and did Lower Sproat, Industrial Disease, Moose Knuckles. Forgot how fun but reasonable burly Moose Knuckles is. Lost a shock mount bolt somewhere right near the bottom for the new Patrol. Solved by Evolution on Sunday.
