We will be out working again on Thursday. Dirt is digging really easily right now, so we will probably concentrate on applying first aid to the big line of jumps and berms.

We worked for more than 4 hours on the big line. put about 20 wheelbarrows on the landing of the 3rd jump. it is shallower, a little longer and a lot safer.
Also spent a lot of time working on the 1st berm of the big line. Worked on landing of the 2nd jump of the big line and spent a little time on the 2nd berm too.

Place is looking better, but we still need to be out there all day tomorrow finishing up and smoothing the tracks.

The pump track is more packed and rideable, but lots of the new jumps are still too tall and peaky... will need to be chopped and smoothed tomorrow if we want riders to have fun flowing them on Sat.

no pics - camera battery dead.
