The southernmost bike legal trail in Crockett Hills Regional Park has re-opened following habitat protection closure for nesting Golden Eagles. The nesting season looks like it was successful and you’re likely to see a pair of eagles soaring in the area.
The BTCEB trail crew has began rehab work on Goldfinch. A full pass of brushing has been made but cattle periodically knock vegetation back into the tread. Tread work has been begun as well.
Watch Meetup for a trail work day this fall. Until then check out this raw seasonal offering. More wheels on Goldfinch help as well. In case you’re not familiar with Goldfinch you can find the bottom of it off the fire road climb left hand turn to Tree Frog. You can ride it either as an out and back or climb the adjacent Back Ranch Loop fire road and then descend Goldfinch.
