I recently noticed that Zipline trail, a great connector between Bear Creek and Section 16, had been renamed Stephanie's trail. Curious, I emailed Medicine Wheel, which built the trail, to figure out the change.
Their public outreach guy Jim said:
"While cutting the trail in, we came across a small, hand-made ceramic marker that someone had left, memorializing a cat named Stephanie. See the attached photos. Since we're kind of goofy mountain bikers, we decided it was a great name for the trail.
The marker was originally one piece of clay that had been rolled out but had delaminated, so that the front and back had separated. We have no idea how long that had been out there or who left it, but we did not find Stephanie."
