Frazier Mountain Park Community Multi Use Trail System Proposed

Dahmeet! It's about time!
The Kern Council of Government (KernCOG) is distributing federal and State funds to regional projects and holding meetings throughout Kern County to develop walking, bicycling, and transit (possibly equestrian) access throughout the county.
There will be a community workshop December 15th from 6 to 8:00 pm at the Frazier Mountain Park Community Center to explore that vision, the depth of which I will find out as I plan on attending.

I envision a network to include a trail from Lebec to Frazier Park, and from Frazier Park to Mt. Pinos (Home to the famous McGill Trail). I could also envision a trail from Mt. Pinos to Pine Mountain Club. Even on a paved trail, this could be the beginning of an Epic start. The right "type" of businesses could reap huge financial rewards catering to the potential influx of tourism generated by scenic cycling. I know there has been many times Cathy and I had loaded up our bikes and traveled to Ventura to ride the Ojail trail, then go dine locally and shop local options.

As some know, I have always dreamed of a Mountain bike trail Network in my home town and have always believed it could generate additional revenue for the local community.
I know that Caveman Cavey's Pizza and Mike's Pizza can attest to that from the traffic generated from McGill Trail's use by mountain bikers.
I will keep you posted as this unfolds.

 

Gotta start somewhere and that sounds encouraging. The area definitely needs any kind of boost in tourism it can get. Let me know if you'd like another MTB face in attendance. My cdl still says I live there.

 

Maybe when I retire I will stay here after all!

 

I want to start my herb farm next door to my bestie @Mikie.

 

Careful peeps in them parts be packin heat...

 

Like Charles Whitman and Lee Harvey Oswald, I am a USMC trained combat infantryman. 500 meters with iron sights on an M16A2 and pretty damn good with a .45 too.
Get off my lawn!

 

No lawns allowed due to drought conditions pal...

 

I got some rock salt loads with your name on 'em, wise guy!

Stay off my drought resistant xeriscape!

 

...and to think we only made it to the third post before full derailment...

 

In my mind, the trail runs past my flowering herb trees, top less maidens trimming leaves in the sun. A gentle breeze blows as the local kids chase the ice cream truck-that's playing "Purple Haze".

 

IT Band derailment has obviously influenced excessive vapor intake.

 

I hope the trails get built, but not if they're going to be 10ft wide with post fencing and wood chip paving.
Keep us posted.

 

Can I preorder a dozen brownies?

 

You'll only need one of Uncle Ross' brownies.

 

I wonder if the trail system would border Windwolves preserve. You can ride over into Frazier Park from there.

 

I... uh, already have a trail that borders Windwolves Preserve...

 

Uuummmmmm...... Sir I will need to confirm The dosage and effect and quality of uncle Ross brownies. I am a certified professional and self-proclaimed expert. With over 20 years of experience. In Every aspect at some point.
