Ride Coordinator
As the weather warms up and the snow melts into the ground, trail surfaces can turn to mud. While some enjoy the thrill of riding in mud, this is when great damage can occur to trail surfaces. Please consider this when you’re out riding this spring. Email len@grandforksatv.ca if you would like to go for a ride.
Trails
Your GF ATV projects team is working on more safety updates to the Trails of the North Fork. The team is seeking nearly 60K in funding to clear the trails for all to enjoy. Our projects and trails director has been busy applying for grants and seeking funding opportunities to support the project. Reach out if you want to get involved.
Burrell Creek Riparian Project
We wanted to show our support for the Burrell Creek Riparian Project taking place adjacent to the 28 Mile Recreation Site, 44 km north of Grand Forks. This project enhances the resilience of communities and ecosystems throughout the Boundary region by increasing the scope of knowledge, awareness and capacity in riparian and watershed health. The work includes the restoration on two sites along Burrell Creek (previously impacted by a wildfire) and the Kettle River (previously impacted by flooding and erosion) to kickstart a larger watershed-restoration project. The project will significantly reduce loss of land, reduce sediment which impacts downstream communities and water systems, and improve conditions during flood and drought events.
Trail Closure
Attention ATV riders in Christina Lake: The Italy Connector from Santa Rosa to Clarkson Road is closed through the private property at south end. Please respect the landowner while we work to resolve their concerns and re-establish a route.
