The flow-killer is history and here are the new berm
It is a bit longer now, can`t wait to ride it!
This is were the mud pit was. We filled the bottom with rocks, raised it and made the berm bigger. (Always better...)

Getting there
All the rain has been keeping the soil nice and wet here in Hafjell.
The last day’s dry weather have made it possible for us to finally make some “real” progress. Moe`town mid-section is now fully restored and the very last section before the Parktrail will be done tonight.
Here is the second to last jump in the mid-section witch we extended the table 1,5 meter and the landing another 1,5 meter. I twill match the speed you have there, much better now :-)

A littel bit of rain
After the massive rain this early morning the trail crew have been working hard getting the trails back into shape. After the enormous effort, we are proud being able to keep all the trails open this weekend.

The rain is threatening to make us close a trail that we have opened permanent, for the first time ever.
The Express trail looks more like the Grand Canyon and we are mainly checking trails for damages these days and leading water out of the trails.
Moe`town were getting it bigtime in the spring and now water was becoming a treat again. We had to redirect one of the main water pipes today. It was starting to wash out a big chunk of the trail.
It would be nice to get back to actually building some trails soon…

More to come on that one.

Back to everyday life
After the amazing opening weekend we are back to normal life here. The Buldre trail keeps getting TLC and right now it is the top section getting sorted. We have been removing “some” who did nothing for the trail but were killing skies in the winter. In the process jumps were growing and new ones popping up…

On a mission, in the Buldre trail
Even today being a holiday there were people showing up, helping out. Just awesome!
The Buldre trail, from the exrockgarden and down to the first road got a lot of attention. The table top just after the road is now also 1,5 meters longer and have less pop.
In Grass trail, the “water slide” was extended with 4 new berms, tight and tricky…. The rest of the trail was also looked after.
Råbølstien (it includes the hardest rockgarden from Europeans Camps) is also ready after a three falling down in the winter was removed and all the leaves were raked of the trail.
A beautiful day, 20 Celsius with blue sky and we really got a lot done :-)
