TRAILS/WEATHER CONDITIONS

Good Morning Fellow RRMT, Inc. Blog Readers...(we have already received some great feedback on this new tool so we know many of you are already avid readers of our new blog)

Be sure to check out my blog from yesterday, Thursday. I didn't get it posted until late last night, but it is really long and thus very informative...so be sure to check it out.

Update as of 8:48 a.m. this morning, the sun is out and already shining this morning. We received NO rain overnight and currently we have clear skies, so hopefully no rain today, but we'll keep you posted throughout the day.

Here's your noon update if you are looking for one...as of 1 p.m. this afternoon, we are enjoying sunny skies & warm temperatures. The weather is beautiful today. Let's hope this continues throughout the weekend.

Here's everyone's evening & final update for today (as of 5:40 p.m.). We had NO rain today and the weather was just gorgeous...clear skies & sunny weather. We noticed that while there is still a large amount of water in the creek from Pump Jack Hill to where it meets the Red River...a fair amount of water has receded due to our warm temperatures and no rainy conditions over the past week. People can ride in the creek from the old main campground sand pits all the way in the creek past the 2nd gate area up until you reach Pump Jack Hill. (In fact, we seen many riding in this part of the creek today) Even where water has receded on the other side of the 2nd gate area in the creek, it is still not advisable that you ride in the creek past that point not only because of water but where water has receded, there still remains a lot of mud in the creek that has to dry out. Beware of Quicksand...it does exist! But again, just to emphasize, mud is only an issue in this further part of the creek where the water level is starting to recede. Mud is NOT an issue on TRAILS!

But again, the only thing closed is being able to ride in the creek all the way to the Red River. All of our trails are OPEN. On all of the trails we checked today, the random puddles that once existed in some of the trails (under shade trees where the sun couldn't get to), are now virtually extinct. In fact, bizarre as it may sound...its starting to even be a bit dusty on some of the trails now. The dirt/sand at RRMT, Inc. soaks it up so that a week without rain...and we start to get dusty. But again, the dust is not bad by any means. So...definitely good riding is in store this weekend for all those that venture out to the park as the trails are in good condition.

Hope to see you all out on the trails at RRMT, Inc. this weekend.

Happy Trails,
