Seminole Downhill Rock Garden and Reroute
Volunteers at Seminole have been hard at work putting together the last bit of a new, downhill rock garden on a rerouted section of trail. Trail Steward Richard Schick and volunteer extraordinaires Tim and Walt flagged the new singletrack, removing scores of invasive honeysuckle along the way, giving native plants and Seminole’s massive oak trees room to grow. Their expertly crafted rock gardens give XC riders a new challenge to hone their technical skills and progress their riding. Interested in helping out at Seminole? Get in touch here to volunteer.
