WMBC Reaches Agreement for Galbraith Mountain

The WMBC and Polygon 05 have reached agreement for the continued management of the trail system on Galbraith Mountain. The new stewardship agreement is similar to the previous versions and the WMBC will be in charge of all trail maintenance and construction on Galbraith Mountain.

We are extremely pleased we were able to reach agreement with the new land owners. We are fortunate that we have such an incredible place to recreate. Huge thanks goes out to Polygon 05 who is willing to allow for continued public use of private land.

A few work parties were missed while we were in the negotiation process and we will do our best to make up for lost time. In the meantime please respect all posted rules, regulations and trail closures-yes, this includes Unemployment Line (the new machine built trail). U-line will be our top priority to finish as conclude the build season and we we head into the summer of riding.

Special thanks goes out to our legal council, Mark Lee of Brownlie Evans Wolf & Lee LLP, who was invaluable in the process of reaching an agreement that was in the best interest of all parties involved.

Now its time to get back to digging in the dirt!! Stay tuned for trail work days and details.
