It may be draining, but it is not sound
Maybe too wet to ride today? Lower Pete's closure and sign Closure at the bottom of Pete's Some armoured trail and some soft Entry to old Pete's closed Old trail closure growing back nicely Outslope coping after 150mm of rain Press harder on this slurry and you find quicksand that needs to rest for weeks No chance to harden without rest Subsoil springs can pop up anywhere Lots of water can drain onto trail from the upslope edge Dry and solid after 150mm of rain Awesome after rain New corral and drain Always wet A hardened surface and clear water sheeting over Soft, but not in danger It has been really wet This is embedded rock and not a drain Deep and boggy sediment accumulates where trail is badly made We want technical trail - don't we? A seasonal creek crossing It may be draining, but it is not sound See the moto track below the saplings? Obviously, encouraging trail Wet, but draining Some springs bubble and gush A partially-drained disaster Draining after log removal This is fire road - as solid as you can get, but the weather doesn't care Barney top berm after >150mm of rain
