Awesome, Josh!
Awesome. It's pretty mellow and aside from the filters, doable in two wheel drive. However, with use this year it's going to mature, and become it's own trail.So what do you guys think?
I agree with TORX on this 100%. I ran Saddle Up three times over the weekend and it is mellow right now but after some good rain it will mature into a very fun trail.Awesome.

I'm totally stoked to have it back, and it'll be great to knock out some gravel road time.
Good news Everyone!!!!
Saddle Up, from Firebreak 5 to the old entrance has been opened to class 2 and 4 as of last weekend.
The section from the middle to Dogleg will be open this weekend. The trail filters will also be completed. Signs will go up this Friday....
Wood would be a lot cheaper me thinks. I could get tools for that from work.
No, definitely not paranoid. I foresee vandalism, theft, etc if they're made from wood... but I also could see tweakers taking steel/metal as well. Thi sis a tough one.
But i think for ease and cost of repair/replacement wood would be the best choice.
Bolted together, maybe some security hardware of some kind as well.... and some means of it being anchored to the ground real good... a deep hole dug with a concrete anchor type of thing... if we could copy the types of tables typically seen at KOH campgrounds that would prob be a good place to start design wise.
I do also think that having something like this in place, in this location of the forest. how do I say this?... umm, theres nothing like this setup anywhere in that area of TSF. IMO people would self police to a certim point just because of how nice it is/will be to have there. Its hard to find a nice calm place to do a group stop for lunch, during the dead of winter, spring, and fall.
Just thinking out loud a bit. Keep the ideas coming boys!
