NICE LATE SEASON RIDING!
Plenty of snow with overall trails in good condition. With the weekend rain and no new snow some sections of the trails have a loose layer of snow on top of ice. The recent sunny days are creating some icy corners and a few water holes so stay alert for changing trail conditions. Our 7 miles of Trail 8 North of Shingleton had extra attention yesterday with Operator Chris making 4 passes to clean out the (3) bridge crossings, moguls and banked corners. Snow in the weekend forecast will hopefully freshen the trails up a bit. Until then Ride to the Right and Stay Tuned for updates!
Past 24 hour Grooming Operations: Trail 7 from CR440 North to Christmas, Trail 8 from Trail 7 North to 7 miles North of Shingleton, Trail 422 to Miners Castle, Wetmore Spur
Currently: Clear, 15º F, Winds Variable 3 mph
