Stephens State Park Conditions

[mattybfat]

I can answer for Burke as I have been a bunch in the last week.

It's been in great shape but we did get about a foot of rain yesterday or at least felt like it. So what's been typical high stream crossings and usual wet spots. Stay high as much as possible and you will be golden.

Looks like another 1/2" of rain again tonight-
Still think the high side will be good tomorrow?

@ReggieHammond hows this place looking? have you been able to check in? (specifically for a Friday ride)

I live a few miles from Stephens and it poured like crazy last night. Lots of flooding all over. I'd guess its a mess today, but maybe ok during the weekend. Thinking about going over there on Sunday.

Lots of rain all night up here 20 minutes north in Newton!

Anybody ride there today? I'm hoping to go out for a quick spin tomorrow morning before the rainstorms start. (assuming it doesn't pour tonight)

stephens should be good to go, just a couple wet spots Friday AM, high water crossings tho so be careful (we stayed on the higher ground too)

Trail maintenance there tomorrow

Rode Stephens today great shape, only a few mud holes.

Road yesterday morning and it was in fairly good shape. We didn't get much rain last night either. Should be good for the next few days.

Well hopefully enough complaints come in to make it the last. Unfortunately one group could ruin it all for the next that may want to run an event.

Unbelievable how many streamers they put up on the trail heading up to the railroad trestle. Totally unnecessary, I didn’t realize the event had already taken place. Very weak of the event organizer to leave all that behind.

 

[littlev21]

feel free to contact bone frog to complain. I did, and will be contacting the state shortly.

Those streamers were everywhere - from the Tressle to the back end of Tilcon making an ugly mess of things.

I was there this morning and only a few streamers left on the trail going back to kinney road from the train tracks towards the iron gate. I was expecting a shit show and was pleasantly surprised. I did enter from the holiday inn/trade zone area and holy giant new warehouse. Where the hell did that come from? It's nice that they paved the road and blocked it.

Trail report anyone?

Trail report anyone?

Trails are in great shape, although it's getting a bit overgrown.

 

[TPI_Elky]

Was out yesterday on the lower side, south west of the tower. Some overgrown brush on the side, but the trails were great.

Anybody been out since the rain? Rode there a little Wednesday afternoon and caught a shower, but I’m wondering how it is after Thursday.
