Evo Closed for Work
Hi all,Sorry for the late notice, but as of today, Evolution will be closed for 3-4days while we put a re-route in place at the exit. The goal is to weave thetrail down the hill after the step up (which is getting overhauled as well),add a few more features and then point riders up the road upon exit vs.coming into the road perpendicular - which is both a safety hazard and ismaking a real mess of the road.Please take Scorpion, Wonderland or the Woodle down from the towers. Thanksfor your patience and please pass this along to your riding buddies.Cheers,EB

Machine Built Day 8
Hey guys,
Got out in the afternoon y’day and met up with the fellas. Lots of progress and guys gettin’ after it. We’ve crossed the old Luge for the 5th and last time. Both Colin and Andrew have been pushing forward to reconnect with the old section today before the rains hit.
Not much in the way of pics, but I’ll get more today. Also, we did some reshaping on a couple of jumps and softened some trannies, but I want to reiterate that we’ll be dialing the entire trail long before it becomes open to the public . At this point, something gets shaped and the guys are riding it and tweaking as needed for shape and length…. Once that’s figured and things flow from feature to feature down the hill, then we’ll be making sure that everything is caseable.
I put some overlays on the map image. You can see a good approximation of the progress day to day. Just a reminder, that the exit for the trail will be further down (paralleling the road) than it shows on the map.
