Royal Flush is in rough shape in some spots so we are going to try to get it fixed up this fall so it goes to bed over the winter in better conditions. (We could not access the trail this spring due to a closure so missed out on our regular spring compacting). We are going to be watering and compacting the trail and fixing as much tread as we can.
Where: Meet at the bottom of 4130, NOT the bottom of Royal Flush/Royal Flush Trailhead. That road is closed right now but we can access on 4130.

Crew Leaders will have a COTA sign out near the meeting location. Your Crew Leader will discuss the exact work area location on the day of your event.
When: Please arrive 5-10 minutes early, so we can have an on time start. If anyone is running late or gets lost, please call or text your Crew Leader.
What to expect: After meeting with your Crew Leader, the group will have a short safety and work overview briefing. From there, the group will gather tools and walk to the work area. Be prepared for hard work and to have FUN! We love talking about the trails and the techniques used to maintain them, so ask questions if you have them.
Cancellation: Plan on working rain or shine. If there is inclement weather, smoke from wildfires, or anything COTA deems dangerous, your COTA Crew Leader will update this meetup page and a message will go out. If you do not hear from your COTA Crew Leader, the event is on.
