This new signage will make it easier for many local riders to get into the sport, and also provide positive experiences for tourist mountain bikers to help secure the North Okanagan香蕉视频直播檚 reputation and image as a destination for mountain biking.香蕉视频直播

In Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park, Cougar Trap was constructed last year and the trail not only makes more space at the lower parking lot by using a different one, but it also makes other routes more easily accessible.

Also last year, the Ellison Connector was constructed and it provides access to the trail system at Ellison Provincial Park.
