Jim Montgomery - 2014 Edit

A good friend of mine often says "growin' old ain't for sissies". He is correct, but year 47 was a good year.

 Haha, funny you mention Awakener. There were two huge build days, one in Sept and one in Oct where we build a huge reroute threw one of the super steep sandy parts. We ended up making 400m into 1000m of trail. Couple huge berms, a step up, a large drop into a huge step. Lots of work, but much better now. Here is an instagram photo of the drop into the large step up. Hard to see from the angle but the drop is at the very top of the photo. instagram.com/p/uWjeh2Fw_-/?modal=true

 Dude.....that looks awesome! Looks similar to the nice drop to step-down at the very end.....great work and good on you for getting out there for those build days. I have been following the work you all have been doing up there and am pretty sure I know the section you put that in at......in the old clear-cut area you had to go through before you got to the awesome elevated wood work sections including the diving board. At any rate, great job and thanks for the pics.......I really hope to get up there and ride that trail again in the next year or so as it's my favorite on earth. Thanks again!
