Got the new bike and now I need to take it out for a ride(will post pics later). What will be dry enough to ride? Woodcore, do you have an update on how Nass looks(I think I read somewhere you were doing some TM out there).

Looking to start around 8 and it will be a slow ride since I have a broken finger.

Case should be good to go, that place drains really well. I want to get out in the morning but can't promise anyhing. Playing cards tonight and don't know what time I will be getting home.

How difficult of a ride are you looking to do? Given how the paved path went on Thursday, I am definitely SLOW right now but could be interested, depending on where you go and what difficulty level.

Nass is almost certain to be too wet, especially around Scoville. The area around Stone was good to go a couple of weeks ago, as long as you stayed to the higher sections. I imagine that's still true.

I think I am just going to end up going for a hike in the morning. The Nass trip report on CF was saying Stone Rd was still muddy with equine prints all over.

Carrie, if I was to ride, I am pretty sure the pace would be pretty slow.

I was thinking of hitting the lovely DT at White Memorial tomorrow morning anyway so I guess I'll stick with that plan. Have fun on your hike!

Just saw that, effing horses. I guess they effed up some sections pretty good... :smash:

Not sure about the rest of Nass but the North end of Hinman's was a focking mess on Thursday evening. I'm bringing my bike with me tomorrow in hopes of some riding but plan on doing some hiking/TM to start so I can get a better feel for the conditions in other areas before I decide to pedal.

I could not imagine that area being ready for another week of dry weather... if you want to ride dry, poke around elsewhere for the week...
