    New trails need new names.

    What do you got?
    So far Creekside, or Crickside, has been put out there. I suggest we stick with the existing trail naming plan. Name the entire trail The Connector like we have done with the main trail.
    As in everything from Rockdale to Cambridge is The Connector trail. Then we name sections of the trail in addition. It really has three separate sections: Cambridge south to the 1st bridge. 1st bridge creekside to CamRock I. Then from CamRock I to the bridge and connecting the Expert Woods trails.

    Ah yes, my favorite liquor store. In Beaver Creek, CO. Beaver Liquors. Got a hat from there. Unfortunate that we can't use names of businesses  ;)
    Though Beaver Hole would certainly be appropriate. Especially for the prairie/grass section. That whole thing is a beaver hole. We had to move the trail all around trying to avoid all of the holes.

    Why not just call it the Beaver Creek Connector.

    The current Connector is actually the Cannonball Connector. Named after the original railroad trail, which is actually the site of the gravel trail now, from Cambridge to Rockdale. Though I think only the few who read the maps would know that. It is usually just referred to as The Connector.
    The Creek is actually the Koshkonong Creek. Named after the famous (for all the Norwegian settlers in the area anyway) Koshkonong Prairie that drew all the settlers to the area for farming. In the 1800's the creek was named the White River. I guess it got downgraded ;)
    Might be confusing to call it Beaver Creek.
    Maybe combine it all and name it White Beaver Hole?

    Name the whole trail a continuation of the Cannonball Connector?
    Section from north end of Outback(main bridge) through CamRock I to the TTF bridge = Creekside
    Section from TTF bridge through grassy field = Beaver Hole
    Section from narrow bridge over creek the rest of the way north into Cambridge = White River? Kind of a play off of the old creek name and the fact this is a snowbiking winter-use trail?

    These are some of my thoughts. I am open to others?
