There appears to be a snow berm blocking P1. UPDATE – it wasn’t forestry, just some individuals messing around – will be fixed on Monday. Also note: There has been water damage in Devil’s Elbow (between Gun Club and Tower Loop). For our safety, this trail is closed until further…
From Seb: Went out late afternoon yesterday….its only good on a fatbike/snowbike. There are sections where its ok on a regular mountain bike, but you cant string enough spots that are decent for a pleasant/safe experience.On the fat bike.,…the width of the wheels make that much of a difference for…
