Sagefest
Building off the success and effectiveness of Evergreen's work-party weekend that has maintained Devil's Gulch and the Mission Ridge Trail for the past several years, Evergreen and Chelan/Douglas Land Trust (CDLT) are partnering for a one day work party to maintain most of the trails in the Wenatchee foothills, and ride in the Sage Hills before finishing the day with a BBQ at the Horse Lake Trailhead. If you ride the Sage Hills, please come out on April 7 to help with brush cutting, rut repairs, drainage and improvements (Homestead, Balsamroot, Glacier View, The Gut, Apricot Crisp and a few other popular trails). Put it on your calendars now and follow up with Central WA Evergreen's website (https://cwevergreenmtb.org/) or the Land Trust's website (https://www.
