Snow Bike Trails:
NORTH TRAILS
The entire North Trail system was groomed on Friday, 2/5/21 following Thursday’s new snow ranging from 1″ at the lower elevations to 3″ at the higher elevations around Forestville.
The base remains solid with very good to excellent conditions overall.
The new snow helped to cover some of the icy sections on the BLP Rocks Trail, but users should still use caution when near the penstock as run off and ice formation may occur.
In addition to the usual trails, the additional snowfall allowed volunteers to groom the MILDCAT TRAIL, opening up an additional, more technical route for winter use. Check it out if you’re riding on the north side.
Caution Areas: Runoff from the penstock is collecting on the trail in 2 areas of BLP Rocks- in the ‘ice cave’ area under the penstock and further upstream, near the crossing across the river- leaving icy sections of trail that require care. Trail users can throw some sand found in the garbage can under the penstock on the ice to improve traction. Those without studded tires or boot crampons should use caution.
South Trails Grooming: On the the 9th Rubin cleaned up all trails.
WTLGR: Sorry, got to run
