JOHNNY & ALEX TRAIL DAY

PROJECTS

"Locals" Day @ Amarillo Sunset

Work on the weekends? Join us on the Tuesday (6/17) before JATD to finish rebuilding the staircase beneath Amarillo Sunset & Tequila Sunrise.

Bronaugh's Landscaping Co. (Part III)

Just like your summer job in high school, this landscaping team will be building terraces and making things pretty at Bronaugh wall. With an eroding slope and unstable belay bases, this rock work will keep things together for years to come!

Recession Planning

The Fed is Cliffview Recreational Preserve's flagship crag and its approach trail needs some help through a small drop-off (just like the economy). Build a footbridge connecting to a staircase.

Financial Stability

The market and belay bases are effectively one and the same, both need some solid footing to be in good standing for a long time. Construct wooden belay bases beneath routes at The Fed.

Rolling out the Red Carpet

RRGCC's newest property, CFRP, needs a highway trail straight through the middle of Ash Cave Hollow, servicing The Venue and other developing crags. Bog bridges and stone pavers will help establish this trail through the bottom of the valley.

Slaying the Dragon

Another part of the Ashland acquisition, Monster Wall is soon to be one of MFRP's new crowd favorites. It has a behemoth of a project at its belay base on the far end, this is phase one of building a footbridge to help access that portion of the crag.

Monster's Labyrinth

Cut the maze of approach trails to access Monster Wall and Outer Space in the new region of Hell Creek that was added to MFRP in the Ashland acquisition.

Stoops at Coop's

Fix the severely eroded path downhill from the main wall at Cooper's Cove to Mental Health wall on the left side of the crag, just before Infirmary. Craft a system of stone steps up the hill and bolster the belay area above.

Whip Rocking

Work with Muir Valley's trail crew to begin the massive project of rock terracing at Drive-By crag throughout the belay areas under the Whip Stocking sector. We might even let you drive up to the crag 😉

New Trail TBD

Cut new trail somewhere in Cliffview Recreational Preserve or any of the parcels in the Ashland acquisition. More details to come!

Green Team

If you drive a Subaru and eat granola, this project might be for you. Travel the trails of PMRP, BRRP, & MFRP trimming back overgrowth and whipping those pesky weeds.

Go Ruck

Take a break from falling off your project and actually put those muscles to work carrying big pieces of wood to future project sites and taking out the old, dilapidated lumber from replaced infrastructure.
