Trail Conditions

Rode tonight around 7:30-8pm.

Almost all of the trails were in excellent condition, the only trail to avoid is the *white* trail leading from Tourne to Beaches. Of course this is usually the most wet area in the place.

It felt great to be back on the trails after 2-3 weeks off due to injury.

There was a section (close to old boonton rode) with a blown down tree that looks like it was sawed into, might make a good log ride/pyramid.

Trail Conditions 7/5

Figured with all the rain/wet stuff, would update the trail conditions. Trails in excellent shape (red and blue). The white trail is a bit mucky at the bridges - avoid riding around the muck as it is making the trail wider.

Happy Riding!

Had quite a few trees downed on just about every major path. None of them ridable and will require chainsaws to remove.

Rode yesterday (sunday feb 7) and conditions were good. Trails were about 40% clear of snow, but still alot of snow over a base of solid ice. Fast and very rideable, not slippery.

Stopped by Tourne today: the perimeter red trail was dry and very solid, but the low interior trails were still holding a lot of water. I think the coming rain will ruin it for the weekend though.

All of the blowdowns from the recent storms have also been cleared recently, so thanks to whoever who cleared those out.

In good shape today!

The outside perimeter red trail is dry as a bone. The lower road that parallels the white below the red is still kind of soft but a good line has been made. White trail is nice and hardpacked up until the usual spot near the last bridge going to the beach. Counterclockwise after rattle snake up near the homes towards the gravel downhills was fine. Went down towards the marsh bridge and did cut through. Cut though was a little soft in some sections. All in all pretty solid shape!

I still have no idea why the switches are blazed red when this map clearly states that the red trail is the lower section?
