who builds and maintains our mtb trails?

Have you ever wondered who builds and maintains the MTB trails? Are there magical trail gnomes out there hard at work while we're all sleeping? Maybe there are NEMBA Gnomes?

Two small gnome statues posed between two logs in the woods like they are having a conversation.

Follow along with us as we highlight these very elusive volunteer trail stewards out working their magic on our trails.

They may be small but their passion and dedication to our singletrack is mighty!

Some recent trail gnome projects

  • Hand-built re-route of Tinker Toy on Earl's Trails
  • 50’ puncheon bridging at Sawmill Hills

Where are they? Our trail gnomes and our gnome homes can be found all over town as new projects are underway. When you see our gnome home, check us out for more chapter details and events.
