Donner Lake Rim Trail Weekend: Riding, Camping and Trail Building!
Donner Lake Rim Trail, 7/22-7/23 - Please join BONC and FATRAC for a weekend of riding, camping and traibuilding! The event includes:
Saturday, July 22nd, 10AM - BONC/FATRAC-led ride on Hole-in-the-Ground Trail
Saturday Evening - Camping, swimming and general campground fun at the Donner Memorial State Park
Sunday, July 23rd, 10AM - Trail building the new Donner Lake Rim Trail near Castle Valley. Perhaps another ride afterwards.
NOTE: We have a LIMITED number of free campground slots available. If you know you are attending, please let me know how many will be joining you. More information soon!
ABOUT THE WEEKEND: We will help complete the latest higher elevation trail in Nevada County. We will help build a section of the forthcoming DLRT, which will be a great local riding option with gorgeous views and some fun technical granite sections. Adventuresome riders could connect this trail to Hole-in-the-Ground for an uber Sierra epic.
ABOUT THE TRAIL: The Donner Lake Rim Trail, a project of the Truckee Donner Land Trust, is almost entirely an all-volunteer effort to build a trail encircling the peaks around Donner Lake. Hikers, mountain bikers and equestrians can enjoy the stunning views of the Lake, Mount Rose and the Pacific Crest from the trail, which will be 23-miles when complete. The Land Trust has planned a special section of the trail that bypasses the PCT and will remain open to mountain bikes.
