Timberline Bike Park Needs Comments of Support
Source: Timberline Bike Park
Big news today on the Timberline Mountain Bike Trails and Skills Park Project! The USFS has posted the "Legal Notice of Proposed Action" for the project, which marks the beginning of the official 30-day public comment period.
You demonstrated "need" for the project with your initial comments and emails. Now we need to demonstrate support for the documented plan within the next 30 days. Even if you sent a comment already, we need you to send another comment during this period for your thoughts to fully count in the approval process.
Please take a look at the PEA published by the USFS, and submit a letter of support using the links in the right column. And tell your friends - we want to demonstrate the overwhelming support that exists for lift-assisted mountain biking at Timberline.
We're SUPER excited about this project. After a busy summer of mapping trails with Gravity Logic, we're ready to build once approval is reached and the snow melts. From rolling beginner terrain, to progressive intermediate trails, to challenging expert trails -- the Timberline Mountain Bike Trails and Skills Park will be world class and have something for everyone!
There is opposition already. Bigtime, misinformed opposition. So here is a letter from Jeff Kohnstamm in response to Mr Chaney's recent article in the Sandy Post. And here is the propaganda the opposition is saying against the proposed bike park HERE.
