How did you use the trail? Mountain Bike
What was the time of day? MiddayDuration (Hours): 2.5
Distance (Miles): 7
Condition of Trail(s): Snowy
Observations: Snow had the perfect consistency for riding! Not too deep, maybe 3 to 4 inches in some places. Parts of the red and yellow trail along the ledges are pretty well ridden making it very easy pedal. Looked at a few more sections that could be rerouted on this ride. Discovered some new trails and scoped out the possibility of tying other trails together to improve the riding experience.
Encounters: Had a problem with a brake cable coming loose and didn't have any zip ties. Ran into this group of three riders, one of which is Bill Lake - on left - a NEMBA member, but the guy on the right, Rich is the one who hooked me up with a zip tie.
Also ran into a group of dog walkers out letting their dogs enjoy the snow. Told them about our plans in the spring and to check back here for upcoming events.
