Improvements to Forest Service Rd. 779 - DONE!
Enhance local access by working with the Forest Service and Town of Avon on parking. Improve the trail by adding water bars to prevent erosion, widening switchbacks to safely accommodate high clearance 4 wheel drive vehicles, off highway vehicles, dirt bikes, mountain bikes and hikers and removing standing dead and down timber. Perform ongoing maintenance through the Adopt a Trail Program.
Fire Mitigation
Work with the Forest Service, Town of Avon, Eagle County, Eagle Wildland Fire and others to remove down trees and fuel in the Dead Zone, an approximately 4 square mile area north of the Town of Avon.
Designated single track for motorized use
Work with the Forest Service to map, upgrade and maintain existing single track trails between Muddy Pass and Red Sandstone Rd. so that they could be opened for motorized use, dirt bikes, e-bikes, mountain bikes and hiking.
Enhanced motorized winter access
Work with the Forest Service and Town of Avon to restore residents’ winter motorized access to Red and White Mountain via Forest Service Rd. 779 and 717.1B.
