A few years back, GLFWDA gave up the 9 mile Devil's Lake loop - close to nothing, not much entertainment value, and our volunteer that had taken care of it for years asked to make it go away.

I received an e-mail today from Paige, the current grant sponsor for Devil's Lake is giving it up. Anyone live or play up that way that would like to take it on? My recollection is that this was not a high-maintenance project, but like our other routes it requires two annual trips per year at minimum, touching every mile of the route. Storm damage, vandalism, etc can require you to make additional trips throughout the year.

It is approximately 37 miles from Atlanta to Devil's Lake, adds a total of 60 miles to your trip if you wanted to pick it up as a personal project and hit it on your way home.  GLFWDA reimburses $24/mile, thats $216 annually vs estimated additional fuel cost of <$150. 

If interested, please let me know vicepresident@glfwda.org

That was fast - they already found a club to do it

We live less then 2 mikes from there. We are trying to find out how to open up other trails in the area with the small group of us that like to trail ride up here. Who took on the project?
