Just FYI -
Piston's Wild has this day planned as a FUN day of wheelin' (which we haven't had for a long time). Obviously, we'll help where we can, but the day's focus will be on running 4x4 trails and features...

Hi Everyone,
Thanks to all the folks who turned out to help assess and clear OHV trails at the March 28 & 29 work party. At last count 53 volunteers put in approximately 350 hours clearing trail over the two day work party weekend. That's outstanding work! And a big thanks to OMRA and PNW4WDA - Region 3 for co-hosting the weekend's activities.
If you didn't make it out, don't worry there's plenty of clearing work left to do and our next work party is quickly approaching. We'll be focusing our efforts on clearing trails in the Diamond Mill and Jordan Creek areas.
