Conditions are good, the trails have dried out nicely. There is some ruts on new stuff from people who just cant wait to ride. We cleared Laurel Ridge and Cuesta of blow downs yesterday. We'll be back next Monday, from 9am-12pm clearing Grand Tour. Reach out for parking info. For as many...

These rocks are big and heavy, pics dont do them justice. If you want to get strong, do trailwork, no gym membership required.

There is still snow, Ice or mud. The southwest sides aren't bad but the North faces need time yet. Also there's a lot of blowdowns from the storm. We started clearing them on Friday. We'll be back Monday at 9am, Buttermilk lot. If you're available come join us, we could use support from the mtb...

IN for Sunday. If anyone is on the fence about coming, this is a no brainer. Its too wet to ride, come out and give back plus get back in shape to ride a bike. See use Sunday.

If you are willing to drive 7hrs north of central Jersey, the Laurentians in Canada has extensive fatbiking in snow. 46km of scenic rail trail(Le Petit Nord) connects towns and singletrack fatbiking trails, for free. Generally speaking the temps stay cold enough to provide firm fat biking...

Make sure you stay out of my xc ski tracks.😉

I was just at Watchung and xc skied for 5 minutes and bailed. The few tracks that are there did not mill the snow up enough, its gonna take a lot of traffic and or warmer temps to bed in the trail.

I believe everything in NJ is breakable crust right now...unless it was groomed. There is plenty of snow out there but skiing it or biking it will not be good until temps go up and soften snow.

Thompson Park in Lincroft is groomed for xc skiing with classic track set as well as a skate lane. They also rent xc skis and snowshoes if you want to try it out. Get out this week while the snow is good, don't cost nothin.

The billy goat mower work looks great! Cutting out multi floral rose, honey suckle and other invasives this time of year is ideal. Its so much easier when not leafed out and temps are colder, allowing for more comfort while wearing protective clothing. The ground can be unpredictable to do...

I rode the Patriots path side recently and its good to see the park using forestry mower to clear invasives over there. Any chance they are going to use that to clear all the barberry on the main trails? It would be nice if the turns at lewmo could be more mtb friendly. Overall the reroutes are...

We're building 1/15 over at Crosswicks, you're gonna love that trail.

Where is the vinee tree? They cant find it.

So based on pics, I'll let park manager know there are two trees down near blue dot. Got it.
