Blue_Marsh50% 25% Tue 6 PM, Dec 22tduro4-5" of snow, I'd guess. A bit much for MTB, but not quite enough for XC. I did a little XC on grassy areas and it was OK, but I'm afraid I'd be scraping dirt and rocks on the trails. It might be passable on MTB, but it'll be a workout for sure. WeatherUPD

Keystone75% 0% Mon 10 PM, Dec 28LarryMTrails free of snow...firmness depends on the temps. Should stay off the steep climbs when its soft. Oh...that would be most of the trails... WeatherUPD
MTOP-DeadDeer100% 0% Tue 9 PM, May 11JeffSkisMWork is complete on repairing and re-routing the logging damage. MiddleFinger, Dead Deer Extreme, Dead Deer, Hell Trail, NoWhere, and RollerCoaster Say Wut?! are in great shape. Killer Bee is clear although it is still pretty soft and should be ridden with caution especially the first 75yards on the steep drop in and on the middle section where the major re-route starts. The beginning of Hell Trail has been changed. No word on SlayLine and Smashing Plates. WeatherUPD

TRails between Tunnel Hill Road and 437 are OK. Summit View 1 & 2 and Stoney Cabin Ridge have dried out. Summit View 3 & 4(sometimes referred to as Tributary) are soft in a couple spots.

French_Creek0% 75% Wed 6 PM, Dec 23tduroI did some XC skiing there this afternoon. Access roads, fields, and the like were nice. Trails with rocks were not good. I put some considerable wear and tear on my skis in only a few miles. I only saw one set of MTB tracks. They were in a no MTB area, and really wrecked the trail for XC skiing. Fortunately the douche bag only made it a 1/2 mile or so, so damage was limited. WeatherUPD
