Annual dinner

Save the date! Tuesday, March 28th, 6:30pm. It will be via Zoom this year so our out of town members can join. Email pinehillpartnership@gmail.com for the link to attend.

Would you like to contribute to the park join our board of directors. Shoot us an email and let us know.

To replace our annual dinner we will be holding a walk/hike/ride on Saturday, May 20th from 10-2pm. Burgers hot off the grill start at 12:30.

We hope all of you can attend the annual dinner to hear about what is happening in Pine Hill Park this summer. Plus join us for some fun on May 20th.

Snowdog is BACK!

Nate N has been out grooming in the park as of Monday, January 23rd. He will continue to groom as we appear to be getting a little more snow on-and-off over the next 10 days.

With Rutland Cold-Rolled just around the corner (February 12th) we are kindly asking people to treat our groomed trails with care. That means lowering your tire pressures so you’re not leaving ruts. Run 4″ or wider tires PLEASE! No regular mountain bike size tires pretty please!

Walkers, runners—please use snowshoes or X-C skis. Those little toe divots are not fun to ride on, and are very tough to groom out once the snow sets up. If you need snowshoes the Community Center has them to loan out.

This is a huge event that showcases Pine Hill Park to the mountain bike community in the northeastern US. We really could use everyone’s help in keeping our trails in tip-top shape!

(^-^)/ Thank you!

Trail Work

KSA Built is in the park doing trail remediation work thanks to the Enhanced Recreation and Stewardship Grant that Rutland Recreation received.

We are super jazzed about how the trails that cross the upper power line are coming out. Arthur’s Chair(Upper Jersey) has had a tune-up. Strong Angel and Upper Jersey Turnpike have had a lot of work on them and will stayed closed until ground is freezes solid. Watkins Wood Rd spring area received a culvert to hopefully eliminate that spring mud hole.

Underdog, Salamander, upper Droopy Muffin, PA4J and Casey’s Cross all have been repaired. Where these trails cross the power lines and it’s sunny and warm(above 25 degrees) please stay off those sections of trails. The dirt has a lot of moisture in it being recently disturbed and will rut extremely easy. We would appreciate it if folks just be aware of tire and foot traffic leaving ruts in the dirt. We do not need to readdress these in the spring.

PLEASE DO NOT BE THIS PERSON

The work KSA Built is doing is fantastic with more refinements to come early next year. Broken Handlebar North, Halfpipe, Exit Strategy and Escalator will all get tuned up.

A few before and after pictures.
