This weekend TAMBA is having two trail days in honor of National Public Lands Day.

The first is Sept. 24 on Mr. Toads-Saxon Creek Trail in South Lake Tahoe. The Sept. 25 event is on the East Shore near the Flume Trail on the new Marlette-Hobart Connector.

Work will primarily be on the main rock sections of upper Toads. The existing technical alignments will be kept intact. The main goals are to stabilize these lines and more clearly define them by removing some alternate lines and side trails that have appeared.

Everyone should ride their bikes to the work area and then ride down afterward. The U.S. Forest Service will drop off all tools beforehand.

Bring water, long sleeves, sunglasses, gloves, and your bike. Lunch and snacks will be provided.

Meet at the rock sections at 9:30am — this is about a half mile down from the intersection of Saxon Creek and the Tahoe Rim Trail. The workday ends about 3:30pm, with a then ride down to the bottom parking lot for a free barbecue and beers.

TAMBA, the bike patrol, Muscle Powered Carson City, and Nevada State Parks will be working on the Marlette-Hobart Connector Trail. Bring long pants, long sleeves, sturdy shoes, gloves, water and a lunch.

Meet at 8am at the Lakeview Gate (4500 Hobart Road, Carson City) for 4WD carpool up to the work site. Work will end about 3pm, being back at the gate around 4pm.
