Winona Forest's New Visions Project
Tax deductible
We are now fundraising for Phase II of the New Vision's Project. With a cost of $42,567.36, we need to raise over $6,000 to match our grant award. Please help us out if you can.
Here's what's next...
Connector trail, backcountry trail for hikers/bikers, to connect Shady Shuttle with Backus Bend. This trail will add some serious “excitement” to your bike ride, or challenge for you “trail runners” with steep ups and downs. Depending on which direction you hit it will determine what kind of test you are in for.
Major work on Backus Bend. This very popular snowmobile trail will get some serious upgrades this summer, with added culverts and significant stone added to washed out and rutted areas. This will lend itself to some really nice mountain biking terrain, or backcountry trail running, with multiple stream crossings and overlooks. For the first time, Backus will be a part of the 25K course for the DeerFly Trail Race in August.
Multiple Shady Shuttle Bridges
Continued trailhead signage replacement, with the addition of new trail maps at all intersections.
New single track trails such as Stone Wall, Streamside, Stone Wall South, Otso Ridge Trail, and Bernie’s Bypass will be made official, and get trailhead signage. Take time out to discover these new backcountry single track trails, good for hikers and bikers. See our trail map for locations of these new trails.
Alice’s Alley Reroute. After many years of planning, a large portion of Alice’s Alley will be rerouted this summer, and will now cross Hessel, and continue on to Tail Trail. With the completion of this new trail, snowmobile traffic will no longer be disrupted during our winter events. It will also offer some very nice terrain for non-motorized users, who will no longer need to travel down Hessel Road to complete their loop.
A snowmobile connector trail connecting Bronze with Psychopath.
This project will be completed by volunteers dedicated to providing recreational opportunities for our community, and beyond.
