Tourne County Park Conditions

[onetracker]

Agreed. IMO that park sees too much traffic for leaf blowing. You could leaf blow all of Wildcat WMA and it would not matter but Tourne is very different story.

The Tourne trails are soft and muddy. Please allow the trails a few days to dry before riding.

Is the new orange loop open? I saw in a separate post a month ago it had been closed but for reasons unknown.

The new orange loop and orange dot are open (but currently muddy). The trail that was closed is this one:

Red trail is muddy today. Others are alright, some slick spots.

Overall frozen conditions at Tourne today. New Orange trail riding nicely!

Rode red, yellow and orange today and was primo. Great work on orange, I'll be coming back for more

Conditions solid at 9am, but trending soft.
Sun popped out for 5 minutes and conditions deteriorated , but clouds came back and trails held up through end of the ride.
New orange dot is nice downhill, tough uphill at the rock garden.

Rode it on Sunday, conditions were excellent. The place seems to be drying out nicely only 2 days after the rain fall. Lots of dogs off leash, although their owners quickly grab them when they hear you coming, I thanked them for putting them back on leash as I passed.

Just a guess tho.. it's been so windy, could be ok.... I'd wait for a local to chime in...

I'm up in the township, Boonton didn't get much snow and it all "went away" yesterday. Trails might be damp but shouldn't be muddy.

Hiked Orange and purple today. Trails are in good shape.

Rode a lot of trails there yesterday and conditions are great!

Conditions were great last night! Actually it was kind of dusty and loose.

Conditions were good last evening. Saw a crew of about six riders out there, one with an MTBNJ jersey I think.

@Berms&Boofs Big tree down on orange section on the backside of the Tourne hill climb. Somewhere in the rock gardens where I circled blue. Likely need MCPC to help. It’s a flow killer!!
