Kudos to The Liquor Store for adding a new mode of transportation to their delivery fleet this summer: an E-bike! In addition to having a lower environmental and traffic impact, adding e-bikes to the delivery fleet will allow TLS employees to make deliveries more efficiently during rush hours, and even enjoy some bonus outdoors time. Keep an eye out for the TLS delivery bikes on local roads and pathways, where they will be taking extra care to deliver their precious cargo safely!

"I walk the pathways nearly every day. My world would be a lot smaller and darker without our pathways! Give them a hand if you can!!"

274 trees cleared in 3 days!!! And they're not done yet.
Our 2 man trail crew put in a ridiculous amount of work after the storm last week so you can get out and enjoy our local trails! Riding bikes with chainsaws on their backs, they cleared 274 trees in the Cache Creek trail network in just 3 days. They will be clearing Wilson Canyon today and moving to the Teton Pass trails next. If you enjoy hiking and biking on our local trails please consider a donation through Old Bill's Fun Run to support this work - it's all funded by donations! And if you see Chris Owen or Mike Piker out on the trails be sure to give them a virtual high-five!
Also a big shout out to Harlan at Teton Freedom Riders and Tim and Randy the USFS for clearing up Lithium and then down Blacks. One team one dream out there!

“Maybe this global pandemic has given folks the opportunity to appreciate how much better everyone’s life is with the pathways in place. People, could you imagine this time without pathways to walk, ride, run and get outside on? I’m glad our community made the investment. It’s paying dividends right now to say the least.”
- Aaron Grutzmacher, Spring 2020

Our crew will be out the next few days clearing the trails of lots of downed trees from the recent storm. If you're out riding or hiking and see a downed tree, please let us know the location using our online 'Trail Maintenance Request' form at the link below (it's the red button on the bottom right of our homepage). That info is emailed directly to our trails manager and is the easiest and most efficient way to help us clear the trails. Thanks for your help and enjoy the trails!

FOP maintains 130 miles of your favorite backyard trails, including those in Cache Creek and the greater Snow King area, Munger Mountain and Teton Pass. This summer our trail crew has cleared hundreds of downed trees, rerouted unsustainable portions of trail, built bridges and turnpikes and drainages, cleared brush to improve line of sight and much more. If you use the trails (and LOTS of you do), please consider a donation to support them! www.oldbills.org
