If anyone out there was planning on riding Picture Rock this weekend, be forewarned that it’s closed.
I got this from the Boulder Mountainbike Alliance today:
“The Wild Turkey and Picture Rock trails have been temporarily closed at Heil Valley Ranch due to concerns for damage to the trail surface and surrounding vegetation.
Wapiti, Ponderosa Loop and Lichen Trails will remain open.
Current trail conditions in the lower elevation Front Range are generally poor due to the recent moisture, warm temperatures and freeze/thaw conditions. Moreover, the slope orientation and soil type exacerbate the problem even more for these two trails. Finally, with weather forecasting continuing mild temperatures over the weekend, staff has initiated this temporary closure. Signs are being posted today. The two trails will reopen when staff make the on-site determination that conditions have improved and are stable.
Feel free to contact Michael Bauer at 303-818-0615 with any questions.”
So if this bums you out, consider doing this instead.
