Since we're playing Caption This Photo... Looks more like... "There is NO way in hell I'm going to date a dirty law breaking MTBer! Sorry you cannot have my number"

"Don't you hate it when you get razor stubble when shaving your legs? I find that it helps smearing on some aloe vera after I get out of the shower."

Looks like the woman from the news article--Hallie, the Exec director of LCF. Probably just explaining what modifications they made to it.
 
article states lizards is first new official trail in lcwp in decades. Thats not true, stagecoach was opened in 2007 and stagecoach south was opened in 2011. Stagecoach was not even a preexisting trail. Reporters always get facts wrong. Edit: Chopper beat me to it, shoulda read the last post before I posted!

I would have to check out the maps, but is it possible the new extension to Stagecoach and Stagecoach itself is not part of LCWP? Is the area from the Nix Center part of the LCWP system? I always assumed it was a separate although enjoining trail system. Don't know, just asking...
 
They're working on it.
I talked to someone from LCF last week at the bottom of willow. It sounded like once they open lizards they will start to work on/sanitize/pave/sustain (pick one) the two drunken trails. Lets just hope they actually designate the trails biking only, and get actual mountain bike riders to work on them once the time comes.

I hope they pick Drunken Sailor over 5 to 9. The rock face at the end of drunken sailor is a Laguna classic.

stagecoach south is on LCWP property. LCWP Rangers coordinated with SHARE and IMBA to complete the section between Camarillo and Willow and worked with another group to complete the section between Camarillo and Nix.

Sounds like we have a volunteer. Contact Alan via email at the Laguna Canyon Foundation website or SHARE (via website or Facebook) for the next opportunity in Aliso or LCWP....they work the trails according to their schedule and have a dedicated core. Then you can get the straight story direct from the people who know and contribute a mountain bike riders perspective to the maintenance and what you see as a rider. A condition of opening Lizards was active habitat restoration to unauthorized trails (see sign at top of Marie Callendars). In the interim, come on out to Santiago Oaks on March 8th.
 
Any updates? Getting close to the timeframe originally mentioned. Looking to do a Quail Hill Loop with LCWP soon.
 
the next opportunity in Aliso


Bit late with this... (its tomorrow)

Got this email from SHARE -

I just got an email that the Laguna Canyon Foundation is looking for some help on Sunday (3/8) to work on 5 Oaks trail from 8:00 am to Noon. Since SHARE is already committed to a trail work day in Santiago Oaks I thought some of you might be interested in helping over there.

They do need an RSVP to Mike Hall at [email protected] if you can make it.
 
Son of a B.
As of Saturday the Lizard Trail is still closed...one would think LCWP would put up a gawd dayum sign up if the fn trail is closed?? NOPE.
NOTHING at all but fresh tire tracks.
What a croc of sh#t. End of rant.
 
Closed signs are there, usually tossed into the shrubs by others. Rangers would rather have the trail open but until the State says ok, it's closed. Without the standard trail post up, look for where someone has tossed the closed signs, or call down to the ranger to give them a heads up.

BTW...runners are posting current Strava times too, so it's not just the MTB group that has a few @$$holes.

A well known trail running group has been running Lizards for several years...
