IMBA Trail Crew visit to Carvins Cove

Cross post from our local forum

We had a great crew for yesterdays IMBA trail workshop. I believe the number was 56. Half a day was in the class room, half a day building trail. I found the slide show most informative. After the class and lunch, we all headed to Carvin’s Cove for some hands on trail building. The new section will extend from 4 Gorges to somewhere near the top of Comet.

The Crew

After several hours of hard work. I had forgotten how hard it is.

Matt and his crew serving up some berm

Big daddy black snake wondering why all these people are suddenly in his neighborhood

Bill, builder of so many trails in the Roanoke area with the Mid-Week trail crew. He is an inspiration to do what he does at his age and always come back for more.

Good day. I look forward to riding some new trails over there in the future.
