Thanks to Nov 18 Volunteers
Once again, we have been blown away with all the volunteers that showed up today to give their love to the trails at Ringwood State Park. Ringwood is a very special park and it is great to see that so many others feel the same way. Today 22 volunteers came out to clear and repair trails after Hurricane Sandy. More fallen and uprooted trees than we could count were cut out as well as some re-routes built in a total of 116 hours. ... thanks all! Shepherds Lake to Skyline Dr is clear for riding and hiking.

Sandy Clean Up Continues
Ringwood State Park was hit pretty hard with Hurricane Sandy. As of November 14, the trails are technically still closed. Jorba is working hard to clear fallen trees and get things back to normal as quickly as possible.
The Ringwood Ramapo (red) trail has been cleared from Warm Puppy all the way out (yellow) and out to the top of Skyline Drive. In addition, the south end of the park including Catsnest has been cleared. This Sunday, crews will be working their way north on the Ringwood Ramapo and Skylands Trail to clear all the way down to Shepherd's Lake. Volunteers should rsvp to ringwoodmtb@gmail.com
In addition to Hurricane damage, the pipeline construction has begun. Please be aware of machine traffic on the pipeline and woods roads, as well as any temporary minor closures. Thanks and see you on the trails soon!
