On August 1st, the RFMBA Seasonal Trail Crew climbed, traversed, and descended the full Arbaney-Kittle Trail from Larkspur Mountain to Basalt on bikes with a mission to clear as many fallen trees as possible … all while on a big 24 mile ride.
Dozens of trees big and small are now cut out of the way, allowing riders to fly through long sections of sweet singletrack. The hike-a-bike ridge crux is still a route finding adventure, overgrown segments remain part of the backcountry charm … and while 18 fallen trees remain, they have all been de-limbed for an easy hop or carry over.
Bring a hand saw and tackle a few of the remaining trees if you choose to tackle this classic trail adventure!
