I'm thinking both S2S and Grouse will be: bring your bike up and ride around up here. 

Grouse probably riding a chair, S2S will be just pedals. Both will want people to have après up there in their amenities.

Some trails are staying open in Fitz I thought eh?

Stuff on the outside edges of the zone, EZ Does It and Crank it Up shouldn't be a problem.

Possibly a temp entrance to A-Line skipping the whole first section hopefully. But trails like B-Line, Schleyer, Canadian Open you'd have to think will be out for this season.

Will be good to see a 2023 trail map and we'll get to know.

I'm wondering what will happen with the lineup area. Will the Fitz lineup area be used as an extension of the Gondola lineup or all be a construction compound. During Crankworx that area will be wild !!

Voted at Argyle. Quite a few people biked there. Took that as a sign they're voting Bond. 

Best of luck to Mathew

I wrap a beach towel around the main bar between the prong supports. Works fine but I'm only doing short journeys. Also I've a basic alu CX bike, can't imagine people would wanna do that with bling carbon road bikes.

The front wheel flops sideways but it's not possible for it to come off. A few extra bungies if you're worried.

Did a quick overlay. Do you know which parcels Dan? 

I wonder would requests from folk to shelve that plan and turn it over to Parks have any chance. More land to single family homes doesn't seem to jive with the current emphasis on density

That's exactly right. fitness and/or the patience to get to the top of the Sproat network is a major squirrel catcher for that remote area. It's not perfect, there are fit people who make it up fine and can't back it up on the decent, but it's an important part of the puzzle.

I'm curious do many e-bikes make it up to Lord of the Squirrels ignoring the signs? I've never seen any up there but I don't get to ride up there as much as I'd like.

Back to OPs question would the idea be ride up there instead of LOTS as it better or just something different?

Self guided at $350 with 4 buds. 

That much better than TOTW ?

But it spits you out on Baden Powell, and the ride back to the parking lot is very different than Expresso. I think for many newer or intermediate riders, it ultimately ends up being a pretty poor experience after the flow fest on Expresso. Not sure what the solution is; I personally love that section of Baden Powell and would be sad to see it get buffed out. But I do think its illustrative of a incohesive portion of the trail network.

The 2008 Fromme Trail Classification Plan called for a climb trail from bottom of Espresso to second switch back, just above Van Tan. But seems the No Quarter climb trail got built instead
