Yes. And i think you're referring to Evergreen as the newest trail. These trails are awesome and tend to drain extremely well after rain.

Anyone hike or bike here in the past few days? Have an idea what the conditions are like? These trails are always pretty hardy so hoping a few miles this weekend could be in store.
Great frozen conditions this morning - no ice or snow left. Since Shotgun was leaf-blown, it may get squishy in spots after thawing. Saw some frozen ruts. I woulda left the leaves on but not my trail. I cleared a bunch of sticks and derailleur eaters from the recent wind so everything is pretty clear. No trees down that i saw and i hit almost everything.
1" of icy crust this morning. My 2.5s broke thru most of the time but that was preferred bc was the only way to get traction. Had to push harder than normal but was able to ride almost everything on my short ride. The solid spots were interesting, especially when on a turn.

Squeezed in a quick ride before aftercare pickup this evening and all I rode was good except a few small puddles where leaves blocked the drainage in like 3 spots.
Was surprised the leaves weren't more packed down by now. Actually lost the trail a few times on Blue Flipper and Test Bore. Gus N Bru and Evergreen were better. Looked like Shotgun/Cogswell was better too. Reaction seems to have been reclaimed by the forest - couldn't even find the entrance.

You mean the actual Snake Hill Road bridge just uphill from Lake Ames? Was there Friday night and it was fine. There was evidence of water coming over the top and causing some erosion but also looked like some road crew did some cleanup. There are a couple orange cones on one side.
Edit: re-reading your post i now assume you're talking about the trail just above the neighborhood where you cross over the stream before getting to the bottom of Evergreen. If you need help fixing, PM me.

The report was the rock just past your bike in the picture had been pushed downstream but honestly it may just be underwater…This was Thursday. I didn't notice any damage, but am not that familiar with with it.
