Comments
Comments: ***SLA has announced the trails will be closing for mud season on Tuesday, March 12.*** I would recommend assuming the trails are closed NOW, as they are already in a fragile shoulder season state.

Nasty conditions this afternoon - about 4" of wet snow on top of standing/running water and mud. I went partway up the first set of steps then turned around. Awful conditions, and my steps were potentially causing damage to the trail.
