Hartshorne/Huber Conditions

It will be a slushy mess. I was there this morning and some parts of the trail are soft and saturated. this weather will make it un-rideable. I dont know huber/hartshorne park in terms of how long will it take to drain but its up to the locals there to give you a heads up.
 
Some low laying areas are soft. Rode up top, not too bad but you can definitely see and avoid the moist sections. With the sun finally breaking through as I type this together with the wind, tomorrow should be pretty decent. I'm riding more of the park later and will update after.

UPDATE- good to go! Hit it! I covered both parks. The connector trail from claypit lot is good except for the normal swampy section. I didn't touch rocky point at all so I can't say anything about that.

I think RobW's description from yesterday is a good one. I rode Hartshorne today and there were some scattered soft-ish areas, but no peanut butter mud. There were lots of walkers out, too, so you had to be careful of other trail users and sometimes use some restraint. If the weather continues to be relatively warm (especially above freezing at night), sunny, and breezy, I'd expect conditions to improve even more. Gave it a "3" on the Trail Conditions Report.

I'll second all of this.
 
Yes, indeed... went to Huber Woods late yesterday afternoon and rode everything at Hartshorne Woods today, and the trails are in very good condition. There's a scattered muddy spot here and there, but very minor. A few soft, but not muddy, spots as well, but they're easily avoided. It's great to finally get back on some dirt! I rated it a 4 on the trail conditions report. While it's not absolutely perfect, it's probably a 3.7, but the conditions report is only whole number voting.

+1. Was there was well today. Completely agree with AndyJ.
 
we received minimal rain last night- I personally would ride right now but I have this thing.... called work. 🙁
 
If it rains today / tonight like they are calling for will Hartshorne dry out for Sunday riding based on it being in good shape already?

Maybe. I'm hoping for the same. Saturday's forecast is at least partly sunny and windy, which should help dry things out.

It is safe to say, that given what I covered yesterday and the day before that it would be fine by saturday afternoon.
