Description

There is a large difference between just building a trail and creating sweet singletrack. Listen in as Drew continues his trail building how-to series with some sustainable design considerations, tool recommendations and a few random tips thrown in. Flow trails and technical trails are discussed with a focus on dumbing down trails, and whether or not that problem really exists. There's also a little insight on why trail builders build trails.
 
If you or someone you know is in charge of trail projects or organizing work days for your group, Drew wants you to email him. Share your projects and when your work days are, and he'll share that information in future episodes.
