Here are more details on the trails:
The Tahoe Area Mountain Bike Assn. (TAMBA) and the Forest Service are building new world-class trails around one of the most beautiful places in Tahoe: Angora Ridge and Fallen Leaf Lake. Three miles are funded – we’re raising money for the last three.
Fallen Leaf Lake is a gem at the base of Mount Tallac. To the west of the lake is Angora Ridge, site of the devastating 2007 Angora Fire. With your help, we can link many old user trails and connections to the new trails at Tahoe Mountain. The US Forest Service completed the hard work of environmental approvals for approximately 15 miles of new trails. These trails are ‘shovel ready’ but need funds for construction.
TAMBA is teaming up with the Forest Service in 2017 to build the first phase of these new trails: six miles in total on three new trails.
Some of these trails will eventually be part of a bikeable trail around The Lake.
This project coincides with the 10th anniversary of the Angora Fire. On June 24, Lake Valley Fire Dept will host an event to remember the devastating 2007 fire and celebrate the rehabilitation of the area. Also, Lake Valley Fire is organizing volunteers to help with the trail building.
This project is supported by the Meyers Community Foundation, which is helping raise awareness and funds for the project.
TAMBA needs volunteers to help on this project! Follow them on Facebook for alerts on how you can become involved. >> https://www.facebook.com/TAMBAtahoe/
