Chimney Rock Conditions

[Jrzjoe]

This was taken on blue around noon. It was soft and I can’t imagine being able to ride it. Maybe a fat bike, which I don’t have. It is packed down though and I’ll bet first thing in the Am will be rideable since it’ll refreeze. Also walked a little red. It looked similar.

Is there any snow left to fat bike on? Or did it all melt?

Come and get it. Perfect conditions.

Yes, the trails are again rideable. They vary tremendously, with some areas covered in soft, wet snow with a somewhat icy base, to wet trails with no snow cover whatsoever, but fairly muddy. Lower blue could be characterized as Class II rapids in some spots...😉

Attempted blue and red. If it were cold enough to freeze I’d have gotten a ride in. Where it was ice was rideable. The snow was very soft when it wasn’t ice and the mud was terrible where it was present so I called it quits after a couple hundred yards of both. I suppose the fat bikes rolled it better yesterday, I saw the tracks but until it freezes again it’s probably a good idea to avoid.

Great conditions for a fat bike ride. Rode blue, red, white, orange and the ballfield loop (black?) - I followed the tracks throughout most of it, it wasn’t slushy yet. Some standing water/puddles but very, very little thick mud. Some perfectly dry areas where the sun has been working its magic. I’m sure the warm weather is going to make it a mess soon, but glad I was able to get one more in while the temps were still cooperating!
