MWTA will construct a short section of new singletrack near the intersection of Palmer Point and Templeton.

We will post the city's CERVIS signup with meeting location & instructions here. If the work day is full, you can sign up to be on a wait list, in case we are able to expand the number of crews (max 10 people per crew).

At MWTA the safety of our volunteers (while working on trails - you're on your own when riding them!) is our highest priority. In addition to our typical trailwork tool safety considerations, we follow El Paso County Health guidelines for COVID considerations during Trail Love workdays.

At this time MWTA limits our crew sizes while working outside, utilizing masks and social distancing to reduce risk of transmission. Please do not attend the workday if you might have been exposed, if you exhibit any symptoms, if you don't feel safe, or if you are unable to comply with our safety guidelines. THANK YOU!
