Thread: Ride invite Wheeler/East fork Sunday morning May 16

    Ride invite Wheeler/East fork Sunday morning May 16

    Some friends of mine rode Wheeler/East fork last Sunday and said it was dry. Lets give it a try.
    It will be warm and sunny from now till Sunday so it should be dry by then.

    Lets meet @ 10:00 bottom of Wheeler canyon.
    Still trying to get in riding shape.

    How far up did they go?

    I heard it was good at least up to the Green Pond parking lot.

    I may try to make this ride.

    I've been eager to get out and try some new trails but prefer to try a trail for the first time with others that are familiar with it, when possible. Would we be meeting at the area across from the Pineview dam? Is there a desired skill level, or is the ride open to all?

    Please post pics of the trail when you go, I'm eager to know what the condition is up by Green Pond. If it's decent, I'd like to hit this next week.

    Shit!, Its raining on our dry trails.
    Beech, If east fork is dry enough Sunday I will go up Green pond a little ways and see how dry it is. It is always muddy right at the start of the trail early in the year that creek floods the trail.

    Wesman, this ride is open to all. Yes, we will be right below pineview dam on the south side of the road.

    I'm going to try and make it.

    It's an hour's drive but I'm looking forward to riding some new trails.

    Crossing my fingers about the mud. I hate taking Sophie out where it's hard on her drivetrain.

    I rode Middle Fork today by accident instead of East Fork (I forgot which turn I was supposed to take). It was pretty muddy still and some fallen trees blocking the way, but most was pretty good. East Fork should be in better shape. You guys mind if I tag along with you Sunday?

    Enjoytheride, come along and thanks for the report on middle fork.
    Cachehiker we will try to keep Sophie out of the mud!

    No mud for you!

    Jake and I will be there.

    Nice meeting you guys! Sorry we didn't make it to the top. That's a serious amount of mud for me. Turns out there is very little clearance between my tire and back rim. the little rocks ended up making it impassable for me. Next time!!!
    Your safety is not my responsibility.

    Great ride guys, thanks for letting me tag along! Let me know when you plan on doing a similar ride and I'm in.

    Oh yeah, someone be sure to post up the stats on the ride and pictures!

  19. #18
    That rain sure jacked up the trail!
    It still turned out to be a fun ride.
    We had a big group I think it was 11 people. I have a few good pictures that I will try to post later on tonight.
    Beech, We didnt bother going to Green pond too much mud.

    That was fun. But very very muddy. We ended up late to the BBQ because not only did we have to take a bath the bikes needed one too!

    My dear Sophie is still waiting for her bath.

    I'll bet she's pissed.
