Does anyone have any solid beta on when the MTB trails at Lake James will be opened? Locally we've been hearing soon for last few years but I'm starting to hear it a little more often...

It was posted on Tarheel trail blazers site that it is set to open June 7th.

solid beta

As the previous post suggests, June 7 is the date to go on. This was announced by the West Dist. Superintendent at a Mar 26 meeting. The Northwest NC MTB Alliance is looking for individuals in the Lake James vicinity to get involved. There will be some fine tuning needed to get these trails ready, and more locals in the area can help possibly get them "softly" open sooner. In addition, FYI, an MOU with a long term maintenance agreement in the works as well as a plan for future advanced trails. Contact the Alliance if you are interested in this or have any questions about what the Chapter is doing.

Thanks for the specifics. Good to hear that they are getting close to opening.
