Will be latish perhaps.

I spent the afternoon in there, Pipeline Loop is in pretty good shape, although has been boot-bombed a bit. Also poop-bombed in a couple of places. The creeks are also trying to reclaim their dominance over the snow. I attempted a counter-clockwise loop of Rose Bowl, but got turned back due to boot-bombing / insufficient stomping. It was very soft on that side, as it was directly in the sun. I did some hole-filling and hopefully the few runs I made over it will have smoothed it out and packed it down a little more.

I tried to explore a couple of other places, but it was a slog to try to get through, needs more packing. Maybe a snowshoe trip tomorrow. Saw about 10 people in there today without snowshoes.

Thanks for the ride guys, I had a blast and it was nice to meet you all.
I really have to make an effort to get out on more group rides this year. I forgot how much fun it is riding with a group.

Any time! I’m always looking for riding partners. Not nearly as much fun to go out by your self.
