CORBA volunteers working on Lower Guadalasca in 2022
Guadalasca is a great mountain biking trail, so when California State Parks asked us to help fix it’s worst problems, we readily agreed.
Upper Guadalasca Trail in Sycamore Canyon (Pt. Mugu State Park) has been deteriorating since 2015 when it last had crews work on it. California State Parks is planning to fix the ruts and build drains to prevent them from re-forming. They have asked CORBA to help in this effort by clearing away some of the weeds that are overgrowing the trail. There is a lot of work to be done!
We are planning a number of work days to cut back the vegetation. Fortunately most of it is tall grass and light chaparral so the work should go quite quickly.
So far, events are being planned for Sunday September 29, Wednesday October 2 and Friday October 4, starting at 7:30 and ending at 2:30, with a half-hour break for lunch (plus whatever other breaks volunteers would like to take). We’ll ride down from the top of the park, and return to parking by 2:30.
We hope you’ll be able to help with the restoration of this great trail! We’ll need you to register for these events online so we’ll know how many people to prepare for. You can register online with “Golden Opportunities” (you’ll need to create an account the first time you use this system). Full details like what you’ll need and where to meet will be found on Golden when you register.
Individual events will be cancelled the day before (at the latest) for inclement weather or an insufficient number of volunteers.
We hope to see you there!
