This trail STINKS!

I'm sure we've all said that at one time or another. Now's your chance to complain and have your voice heard. If you don't like a trail on the PMRP (trails that leave from the sore heel, solar collector, drive by parking lots) go to http://rrgcc.org/contact-us/report-bad-trails/ and let us know what needs fixed!

This feedback is very important for the upcoming Johnny & Alex Trail Day (Aug 11). What we don't know is broken cannot be fixed! :-)

Hope to see you there!

Not to derail this thread, but any plan on the road to Sore heel?

Road up to Coal Bank also in grim condition. I'd be bummed if I were an RRGCC donor & volunteeer without a high-clearance rig.

I haven't been there in a year or two, but the last time I was at Curbside the bottom of wildfire was eroding terribly. It looked like it would be a big project to fix it properly.

The road work is on our radar but will not be part of JATD. Any climbers out there that are capable of operating heavy equipment such as a Bobcat, bulldozer, or backhoe?

is Muir Valley [edit] only the Red River Gorge's Premier climbing area or is it the World's?

"Let's see if we can break our 2011 record of 182 participants!"
the FOMV site says there were over 200 people last year. Rick, why so modest? :wink:
