Welcome to the 2025-2026 North Fork Trails Association activity calendar! Weather and other circumstances keep things a bit fluid, but the schedule below has most of the principle elements in place — enough for planning purposes, certainly.

All that being said, here’s the fixed part of our calendar through mid-July. Use the “Contact Us” page if you have questions.

If you are not on our mailing list or have questions abut a specific event, contact us!

October

Saturday, October 4, 8:30am – Canceled due to a very marginal weather forecast. Coal Creek Coal Ridge Trail No. 239 maintenance (note earlier start time). This is typically more of a hike than a maintenance effort, although some obstruction removal is likely. The trail climbs the south face of Coal Ridge. The trail is short, just under 2 miles (3km), reaching the ridgetop about a half-mile (0.8km) to the west of the patrol cabin. As always, bear spray recommended. Contact Bill Walker (wkwlker@nvdi.com) for details.

Saturday, October 18, 5:00pm (date change!) – North Fork Trails Association Annual Meeting/Party at the Rittenburg’s, 1276 Long Bow Trail. Also, there’s an optional trails walk around the area starting at 4:00pm. Leave your gear at home; none of it is needed for this event! The Rittenburgs will supply the main course, with the rest of us bringing side dishes. (If you can’t manage that part, show up anyways.) Please let Jim Rittenburg know (Jim.Rittenburg@icoptix.com) if you are coming and what you are bringing so that they can prepare accordingly!.
