Bear Creek Park Singletrack
In 2007, Medicine Wheel was invited by the El Paso County Parks Department to help with the design and construction of a new singletrack trail network in Bear Creek Park, just west of 21st Street and south of the dog park. It's about 80% completed, and we expect to finish it in spring of 2008. This is an exciting new development, as it is hoped to be just the first phase of a larger singletrack trail system in the park which will eventually connect with Section 16, Palmer Trail, and the trails in Cheyenne Canon.

Red Rocks Canyon Park - The Next Step - Freeride/Skills Area
Here's what Medicine Wheel was able to do in Red Rock Canyon Park:
We collaborated on the design of the Red Rocks Park Master Plan, with the result that about 85% of the trails are open to mountain bikes. After that was done, the city asked Medicine Wheel to help build and maintain a freeride / skills park area of our very own in the park. This is a BIG DEAL! Phase one of the skills park is completed, and we are looking at the second phase. Surf on over to here to find out more about how you can help!
Here's the summary of the master plan on the City's web site.
2007 Fundraising Success!
MWTA was able to raise over $11,000 in 2007, all of which went to fund the construction of new trails in the Pikes Peak region. A big THANK YOU to all our donors in 2007.
Thanks to all our volunteers!
We here at Medicine Wheel would like to thank each and every one of the people who volunteered to help us in 2007. Your hard work means a lot to the open spaces and trails of the Pikes Peak Region. We couldn't do what we do without you.
