Trail Crew Work
The Grand Valley is a world-class mountain biking destination with some of the most iconic singletrack trails in the world. The Valley sees visitors from around the world exploring, enjoying, and challenging themselves on the trail systems at 18 Road, Kokopelli, the Lunch Loops, the Grand Mesa, and in 2021, the Palisade Plunge. Maintaining the quality of these trails is a high priority and COPMOBA and the Grand Valley Canyons Chapter are pleased to have a dedicated trail crew helping support volunteer trail maintenance efforts.
The Trail Crew will work on all non-motorized trails throughout Mesa County, including the three main BLM managed trail systems in the Grand Valley. 2021 work will include Forest Service managed trails at higher elevations during the summer months. Office and shop is based in Grand Junction, CO.
