Hey look at that, the new website is up, and we updated the forum too. Somebody tag Robert C.

Big big thanks to Owen Mundy and his students at Davidson College for all their hard work in making this happen! 

Click around, check out the new features, and the new store, and let us know if something doesn't work for you. Be sure to include what device and browser you are using. president@tarheeltrailblazers.com

Also: special thanks to Marcus Barton for backing up our forum and bringing it to the new site (for better or worse), to Jerry Adams for modding the forum for years and years, extra web help from Sean Smith and Tim Sizemore, Nelson Woltz for our trail descriptions, Mark Sullivan for knowing things, and all those that provided pics through our photo contest last year.

Nice.  I think the previous site update was when I was using a dial up connection.

Looks great! Well done with the limitations of integration.
Wish the forum was mobile friendly.

It's up and running. If you don't see it, reset the cache.

Perhaps this is known.  It appears the new site is configured for UTC and that posts are time-stamped to this and NOT showing in a localized form.  It presently is 4:29 PM ET, and the above message certainly wasn't made in the future.

The clock in the top, right corner of the website shows "Aug 15th, 2020 at 8:29pm".

Yeppers.  It's known.  Just a couple of fine-tune tweaks need to be made.  There's also a few issues with attachments and user avatars..

Any chance of putting the trails in alphabetical order?

Is that avatar issue the not-always-displaying of avatar images?  Mine is not loading, and the image URL is accessible directly.  There may also be a problem with forum user accounts not remaining logged in.

FWIW: Alphabetical left to right seems less intuitive than up and down in columns, but I'm sure we'll get used to it (I'm only looking at a few trails anyways).

Just noticed that the map and MTB project part for Big Leaf Slopes seems to be tied in to the Big Leaf Loop trail at Poston.  The Google map link also goes there too.  The Trailforks link works properly though.

I apologize in advance if you don't need this information...

The colors for the trail status icons turned to gray instead or red, green, or yellow sometime in the last couple of hours.

We didnt want to offend any body so we switched to a neutral color with symbols.

Do what you like. Stop hating people for their riding habits and get back to hating them for their skin color, religion, politics, and sexual orientation.
