Elias Glesmann is originally from Remsen, NY. He attended SUNY Plattsburgh and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Ecology in 2014. He’s been building trails since 2012 and began traveling with the company Rock Solid Trail Contracting in 2018, working in Bentonville, Arkansas where he learned the fundamentals of trail building. He has established two successful New York trail systems in coordination with local mountain bike clubs; Old Forge trails and Wheelerville trails. There, he has assisted with everything from planning, design and construction on a multitude of trails since 2019. 

His trail building skill set includes proposal writing, photography, social media, master planning, ecological assessment, GIS mapping, grade checked flag lines, bridge/feature design, woodwork, stonework, handwork and equipment operation.

The rest of the build team consist of trail enthusiasts from all backgrounds from motocross riders to winter terrain park workers but all share the common love for working in the woods.
