🛠 WHAT: Weekly trail work sessions on the Western Slope

💚 WHY: Because trails don’t build (or maintain) themselves—and when we dig together, we build more than just great singletrack. We build community.

📅 WHEN: Every Wednesday | 5–7:30 PM | Every Weds

📍 WHERE: Western Slope of Massanutten. Enter through the main gate (by the horses – the next entrance down the hill from the Western Slope parking lot) and follow the “trail work” signs straight up the road. Take a left on the second gravel road, go past the intersection “Running Cedar”, there will be a truck there. You can park your car where the new climbing trail crosses the lower gravel road.

🙋 HOW: Sign up, bring a friend, wear work clothes, and we’ll provide the tools and good vibes. No experience is needed. Wear long pants and closed-toed shoes; bring gloves if you have them.

These evenings are fun and productive and a chance to give back to the land that gives us so much.

Come get dirty with us. The trails will thank you.
