Mission trail conditions: December 2007

Posted on 22nd December 2007 / Category: Mission, Trail conditions, Red Mountain / Author:Cory

The trails on Bear and Red Mountains in Mission usually have a dump of snow on them at this time of the year but, as of yesterday, things were pretty decent. If you’re out on either of the two mountains, feel free to post up trail conditions using the comment boxes below this entry.

Red Mountain

There was a skim coat of snow at the base of the hill with about 10cm near the trailhead. We didn’t ride the xc course.

Arduum. The trail is in decent shape. There are a few mucky areas left over from the race, but lots of water mitigation work has been done since then. If you’re familiar with the trail, keep your eye out for a couple of new features — they’re definitely not something you’d want to hit without a preview!

AGM – Annual General Meeting.

Jan 9, 2008

Coast Hotel – Conference room

Come on out to the AGM, for our yearly update of Club activities, election of officers, and general discussion. Now is the time to speak up on any issues you have on your mind, and to ask us about the trails, and give us direction.

You don’t need to be a member to attend.

Also – this is the preferred time to signup for another year of membership. If you’ve signed up in the last three months, just show up and fill in a new form and we’ll extend your membership to the end of 2008.

We’re also looking to recruit a VP.
