the winds have done a number on two bridges, many trees down. still rideable but it's not in great shape. at least 6 and if you're coming from cherry ridge be very careful at that short steep drop as one of them is just over the ridge. a couple down on mojo as well. hemlock is ok

well i'll answer my own question because as of saturday 10/11 all of the tape and signage has been removed, so it's open once again. i wasn't brave enough to ride it because it's never in good condition even when it wasn't closed for 4 months, but it's open...

has there ever been any follow up with this? trail has been closed for 4 months now. if we're leaving it up to the park to monitor we may as well just say it's permanently closed because they're never going to check on it. otoh, if the tree has survived for 4 months of storms and weather...

according to the race site the cutoff is 36 hours so they could still be out there... https://www.sassquadtrailrunning.com/wildgoose/

hang on so this group has permission from the DEP to go around painting permanent white markers for a loop for a race? what's going on with this park? it's bad enough there's some kayak company completely dominating the boat launch ramps on weekends

what does this mean and why would it be bad?

i'm 99% certain the trimming is thanks to members here like kaleidopete...

probably unrelated, but i've seen 10x more atvs and dirt bikes this season than any year in the past. it's getting a little out of control

the stupid tree on mojo is cleared. thanks to whoever is taking care of the brush on mojo and hemlock. you are a hero to me there's a really old and worn out looking tree down in the middle of hemlock that's about chest high. it's pretty big but the woodpeckers have been feasting on it for...

There's a small ish 3-4 inch diameter tree down just after the top of mojo right in the middle of that thorn patch. It's off the ground and is pretty well hidden. After the crash (...) I tried to expose it as much as possible and didn't have anything to cut it with so be very careful here

very cool. i myself am having a miserable time LOL. biting flies are just about the worst i've ever seen, the trails are getting so overgrown thanks to all of the rain that you can't see the dirt in front of your wheel and the heat has been melting my face. nevertheless, i persist...

sure but red dot is an official park trail and was closed as i understand it by the park officials who were supposed to inspect it periodically to see if that tree had fallen and was no longer a danger. now, besides the fact that yesterday i rode directly under no fewer than 4 other large trees...

excellent - i would like to once again thank whoever is continually cutting back those damned thorns at the top of pines. you are a genuine hero - red dot is still closed (6 weeks?). does anyone know if the park staff have even gone out to check it lately? i'm pretty sure that trail has been...

where's this?

red dot trail has officially been closed by the park service. i rode it on saturday and other than the usual 4-6 downed trees (lol) didn't see anything that would necessitate a closing, so not sure what happened. it looked like they cut some of the trees and stopped at some point and just...

Race on Sunday June 1st http://www.blackbearcycling.com/wawa25/

i am 100% supportive of Buddha facilitating this transaction. very underutilized resource🤣

i think this was mentioned earlier but on red dot there are like 4-5 large downed trees that i don't think a hand saw can handle. turkey ridge has 2 down just after the old coal split. timber, south end are all in good shape. pumphouse though... i would like to propose a lifetime ban from trail...

No no there was supposed to be an additional trail or extension on hofferlein and there was a trail build maybe a month ago (?). Maybe I misheard or it was delayed

does anyone know where the new trail is off of hofferlein? i did not see it on the office side (which is where i thought it was)
