By noon, the volunteers had built the 0.25-mile long Castillo Trail that\u00a0now connects Wildwood Trail in the canyon to Castillo Circle on the mesa above.<\/p>\n<p>The Conejo Open Space Conservation Agency (COSCA) rangers had previously removed the chaparral and marked the route of the trail with little orange flags. It was up to the workers to dig out the dirt to make an even trail tread. The trail crossed a steep hillside, so there was a lot of dirt to be moved along much of it&#8217;s length. The route included two nearly 180-degree turns, necessitating a switchback and a climbing turn. Each of these features took 6-8 people all morning to complete.<\/p>\n<p>After the work was finished, the crew returned to Wildflower Park to enjoy a barbecue lunch prepared for the volunteers.<\/p>\n<p>Steve Messer, CORBA&#8217;s president, brought along his GoPro and made a time-lapse video of the trail building, and of the first ride down on his new hard-tail 29er.
