Went out to poach a run before the bike only signs go up on the latest and greatest in Corner Canyon, Jamie's brainchild that is becoming known as Jamie's Junk. The first half is ready to ride, and for those of you who haven't been out on it yet, here are a few preview photo's to help get you out to ride it before the snow flies. Seriously, even if you haven't made it to a trail work day, get out and ride it, the more traffic and compaction it can get before winter, the better shape it will be in right out of the gate come spring. And it's good - really good. It starts right at the top end of the Clarks trail head.
Hard to tell in the photo below, but you'll get 5 or 6 good chances to work on your cornering flow between where I'm standing and 30 yards down the hill.
High banks, low banks, little bumps and good size jumps (in context of XC riding), switchbacks, chicanes, and plenty of other features along with those yet to be revealed in the lower half will make this a dandy trail to ride, and probably develop your skills some along the way.
Corner Canyon's not a bad place to go for that out in the middle of nowhere feeling this time of year, even if your only 10 minutes from your front door. And worth the drive if further.
Sharp corner into a steep drop, fun stuff...
Huge props to Jamie for the massive amount of work he's put into this. If your not already getting emails for trail work days, let me know and we'll make sure you get on the list. Trail work makes you better looking.

I couldn't possibly be any more good looking. But, given my schedule work days usually don't work but hook me up on the email list. Hopefully I can help out. Otherwise, I will ride it to help pack it down.
Nate - I'll come ride it with you, close to having the hand ready for some MTB action.
Nic pics of the trail. I have only seen it in the dark on a Thurs. night ride with Jamie and others. I didn't realize how colorful the trail is now.
I love this trail. Although, I'd like it better if I had a nicer bike. Next year...after graduate school.....I'll get something sweet!
