I wish the tracks were classified correctly at Larbortouche
Why do we need to be trained by Parks... i.e to name correctly each tree by their botanical names etc.
What a load of bollocks
O.H well it like being in the Army again... "Hurry up and wait"

its for the reason that what I think for example is an easy track in my sierra is not so easy in my JK. Parameters need to be set. Its a good idea.

Oh well - it did seem all to good to be true.
"Amateur Hour" seems an appropriate description at this point.

I'm not surprised at all. Track grading will become a VERY complex process. Many US trails with ratings have explanations as well as the rating -

If the training goes ahead would it be possible for me to attend even though I'm not on the committee?

Would it be worth running a trip to check these tracks out, to give us an idea of how to grade. (No, I'm not volunteering to lead it)

Andersons can be quite challenging.
