We'll route a bench-cut contour trail through this slope. It replaces
a section that runs straight down the hill...
this section...
cutting in the full-bench...
from the other end...
more of the same...
taking out a small tree...
a section of tough gypsum...

we now go left instead of right...
taking a break in the shade...
Charles trying to teach James how to make a 'knick'...
checking the outslope...
Mike at the start of the new section...
Rhonda reusing some cut off tree limbs...
Tim and Dennis reclaiming the old fall-line trail...
And then some of us went for a ride...
James...
Shane and ?...
how many riders does it take to fix Charles' bike?
And Charles and I rode the new section a couple of times the next day...
Charles on the new section - part I

The new contour down-hill rips! It's not only fast but there some
really fun quick turns and dips & jumps in it...
There will be another Roman Nose workday & ride weekend in April.
Details will be posted soon...
