TRAIL/WEATHER CONDITIONS

Happy, Happy Friday! The Long Awaited Labor Day Holiday Weekend Is Finally Upon Us! We wish everyone a wonderful holiday weekend no matter what your plans may be.

We received NO rain yesterday, just hot and sunny. This morning as of 7:10 a.m., we have a current temperature of 74 degrees. Even though the sun hasn't made it out yet, we are expecting another warm one today (upper 90's) complete with bright sunny skies. We have received NO rain thus far today. The holiday weekend forecast looks terrific, so without further hesitation, we're ready (and hope you are too!) for the long weekend ahead...

RRMT, INC.'S RAIN GAUGE RECAP
Just as a recap, leading up to today, here are this week's rainfall totals that we pulled off each of our daily blogs from the week:

*Monday-- NO RAIN
overnight-- NO RAIN
* Tuesday-- NO RAIN
overnight—NO RAIN
* Wednesday--NO RAIN
overnight—NO RAIN
* Thursday-- NO RAIN
overnight-- NO RAIN
* Friday-- NO RAIN as of 7:10 a.m.

Unlike last week's report...it has been sunny, hot, and dry this week. NO rain at all!

TRAILS
All of our trails are OPEN on both the North and East sides of the facility. (Except Bill's Woods & the New Property still remain closed at this time.) Very dry week so dusty trails are to be anticipated.

RED RIVER
The Red River is up a little from last week's rains, but nothing substantial. The amount of water pushed up into the mouth of Mountain Creek is still minimal at this time, but regardless, still be on the lookout for creeping amounts of quicksand in the creek that may possibly still lurk as you can sink your recreational vehicle if not careful. The only place where mud/quicksand will possibly be an issue is in the creek and NOT on trails.

CREEK
Creek riding is not a problem as Mountain Creek is at a low level and the amount of water pushed up into the mouth of Mountain Creek where it meets the Red River is non-existent. Thus the creek is crossable in a number of areas so riders may easily access the trails on both the North and East sides of the facility.

Labor Day Weekend is what some may argue..."The official end to summer!" So don't let another weekend pass you by without doing some riding and camping in Bulcher!

Just a reminder: RRMT, Inc. will be OPEN this weekend 3 days, starting tomorrow, Saturday August 30, Sunday August 31, and Monday September 1 with hours of operation each day of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. All Members, Guests, & Visitors Welcome This Weekend!

Happy Trails,
