Great Times at the Fall Quincy Epic!

Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship

Good times over the weekend at the Fall Quincy Epic! Rollerskating, camping, trail building, bear viewing, hiking, riding, and fun pixie racing make for one great weekend. Moto crews brushed the Mt. Hough trails for improved sight lines, and we built over a third of a mile of new hand-built trail that will connect the Mt. Hough Trail to the Tollgate trails. When completed, it will be one of three different routes from the top of Mt. Hough. Thank you to everyone who came out to help! Special shout out to the great showing by the Nevada County Woods Riders. And we hope to see you next year for a great weekend at the next Epic!
