With the recent snowfall accumulations at sea level, we decided to check out the mountain bike trails in Cumberland. From the trail head, we followed Colliery Line where we picked up Josh's trail. This trail meandered through the trees to one of the access roads in the area. After walking along the road for a while we turned on to Friday's Child which took us to Munday's Child. We went about half way along Munday's Child to an old growth fir surrounded by much younger trees. We stopped for our lunch/snack break under this giant. After our break, we backtracked and returned to Colliery Line which took us back to our vehicles. Much of our route had not been packed down so we all took turns at the front of the line breaking trail, then stepping aside and dropping to the back of the line for a break. We had our debrief at the Waverly where we enjoyed hot soup and cold beer. These sets of trails will definitely be added to our list of future events when conditions allow.
