Mabell has made it into the papers recently.

There was a local write up about Mabell last month, It was a good story but.
unfortunatly it adds more attention to a already heavy used trail :(

Also there was a NEA trail report that posted, the go arounds are still being used
the mud hole is being driven through
and trash and beer cans spread along the trail.

The trail is also still being traveled way past committed onto private land.
this is how trails get closed :(
Hopefully this trail stays open long into the future.

Let's arrange a trail clean up.
We can at least get in there and pick the place up.

The NEA group that wrote the report removed everything that day.
they filled the back of a jeep with trash and cans bottles.

The biggest issues where the trail braiding and going past committed onto private land.

What they asked, was as always to bring out more then you bring in
on all runs.
It does not warant a full trail clean, like what other trails constantly need
only do to the fact that gatekeeper keeps out most heavy dumpers.

The trails that Mike and I are going to the 23rd need constant Trail cleanups do to the access from the local roads for dumpers.
