That was... messy! Alot of fun but what a workout, like a trials competiton in a mud bog. My bike looked like Swampthing and the chain kind of sounded like him too.

Here are a few pictures.
Austin, Jen, Corbin, Wes , Cachehiker, Chris, Kyle and Myself are in the pictures.
Marie, Jenny, Chere, and Jake said screw this mud and turned around.

I think I ate a few dirt clods coming back down that flipped into my mouth as all the dirt went flying!!!! It was a bit of a mud bath. Going to go ride Ogden BST tonight. Shooting for a 5:30 start on the trail.

I was crossing my fingers that they were just that, dirt clods, and not "road apples".

I would hit the bench with you today but too busy with the kids and stuff. :Mario_Facepalm:
Have a great ride.

So still a little muddy up there? Any snow? How far up did you go?

I had a great time, but it was way too muddy for my taste. Thanks to all for showing me a new trail; I hope to learn more.

Sombeech - We didn't see any snow. We went up the East Fork trail as far as the East/Middle forks intersection, then came back down Middle Fork to complete the loop. Was pretty muddy from 226 up. I broke off the trail and came down the last bit on the road, so I can't speak for the last little section back to the Art Nord trailhead.

Some strong riders in the group. I'll pick up the training pace a bit. =)

Beech, it had all dried up from the winter runoff prior to our ride. It was the rain we had during the week especially Friday that screwed it up. If it would stop raining every mid week we would be ok.

So its still muddy, I hope you guys didn't tear it to bad. Hopefully it will be all dry this weekend.
