Still some snow patches in the canyon stretch that will keep it from flowing well. You can make it through, but will walk your bike a few times. Give it another couple weeks.
A few deadfall pieces were removed weekend of April 20.
Snow gets deeper as you descend into Casey’s Canyon, but it was all rideable on fat bikes. Conditions get much more challenging (deep snow) if you head up Met-Win (Trail 99).
from Viewpoint parking area: frozen mud ruts, light snow over frozen mud ruts, light snow over no ruts, light snow over smooth ice, light snow over old snow. Multiple cougar tracks
Bruce, what a total drag! So hard to repair until fall moisture returns. Can you tell me which section? I’m the adopter for that trail. We’re currently locked out of doing any trail work by the FS Covid refs
Clear and riding well.

From the draw crossing on the west to the road 450 on the east which is actually 1.5 miles.
All clear and riding well. 3 minor wet spots on south end canyon section and right at southern trailhead. Please ride in center of tread!
Still not clear. Good for 2.5 miles on the west side of the 16 Rd, then abrupt significant snow.
Riding well until just shortly before Metolius Windigo, basically just before you get to the bottom of the gully. Then a bunch of snow.
All clear and in good shape up to the intersection of Metolius/Windigo, where there is substantial blowdown.
