MMBTS - Family Guy trail

MMBTS have been busy building a new trail 'Family Guy'. Route plan is as attached (under the previous name of West Side Easy):
http://www.mmbts.com/members/mmbts-5-year-plan-summary/
Also covers other info on their plans and the route for SHAFT (West of T-Dub). Apparently SHAFT still has a lot of snow at the top so probably needs another week.
Thanks to the MMBTS volunteers for all the work they are putting in. Potlickers are mostly volunteering in the West Bragg Creek area with GBCTA and clearing fallen trees on established Moose Mountain trails - it's fantastic to have so many people working on and maintaining such a diverse range of trails.
For early season riding please remember to pack a hand saw and if your off your bike to walk around a tree please take a minute to move it off the trail. Thanks.
Keep up the great work everyone!!

May be if interest to the dark knights or jokers out there...

New West Bragg Trails

Anyone got info on new West Bragg Creek trails - whats finished, etc. Here's the old build plan map:
(also some info on the new berms going in on Ridgeback - SWEET!!)

We're not supposed to ride new trails until there complete but from what I've heard 3iii is almost complete (making much better access to Station Flats area trails from West Bragg).

Also, try and get out and help these guys if you can. They are doing a great job extending and maintaining our network of enjoyment!
