TRAIL/WEATHER CONDITIONS

Good Day Mate...

Hello Weekend....Wow!
If today isn't just a gorgeous day...get excited!




There'll be many riding this weekend...
The question is "WILL YOU BE RIDING THIS WEEKEND?"


NO rain yesterday or overnight. This morning as of 10 a.m., we have a current temperature of 55 degrees with beautiful sunny skies. It's only morning, but wow...it's going to be a fantastic day....low 70's expected for highs today with clear skies...a little on the windy side as well...but still super nice! We have received NO rain thus far today. The forecast for the weekend looks equally as nice...both tomorrow (Sat.) and Sun., we're anticipating 60 degree weather, with tomorrow's weather being upper 60's. The forecast is calling for possible rain showers tomorrow (Sat.), but we'll just have to wait and see. With this type of weather, the time to kick off the weekend is NOW!

Here is your comprehensive report on park trail/weather conditions & your outlook on weekend riding conditions...

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 PRECIPITATION
overnight-- NO PRECIPITATION
* Tuesday-- NO PRECIPITATION
overnight-- NO PRECIPITATION
* Wednesday -- NO PRECIPITATION
overnight--NO PRECIPITATION
* Thursday-- NO PRECIPITATION
overnight—NO PRECIPITATION
* Friday (TODAY)-- NO PRECIPITATION as of 10 a.m.

While we did have a couple of sprinkles of rain this week (which we didn't even report because it wasn't even enough to measure)...for the most part, NO rain this week...so expect dry conditions.

TRAILS
All of our trails are OPEN....this includes all trails on both the North & East sides. Bill's Woods & the New Property are both open as well...ENJOY!

Mountain Creek is at its normal level, except down toward the mouth of the Red River where we advise riders to use caution. No problem crossing Mountain Creek at this time. With no significant moisture this week to report, dry conditions are anticipated. The only mud riders will find will be in the creek as well as a few lingering puddles in some low lying/shaded trails, but those will be few and far between. All trails will be dry & with this weather...weekend trail riding hasn't ever looked so good! As always we would like to remind everyone that just because a trail was there on your last ride...don't expect it to be there on your next ride. Water (from the April 2009 rains) has really changed a lot of our trail system, so we advise everyone to use extreme caution even when riding on trails that you were once familiar.

Riders to RRMT, Inc. will now find that RRMT, Inc. has over 30 new point of interest signs installed out on the trails. These are a great new addition to the park & we are very proud of them! These signs will help you catch the iRide Bulcher, Texas fever as you continue to learn about the various unique parts of the RRMT, Inc. Facility!

** Please note that as of the winter riding season, our sign project has been put on hold. We will resume crafting and putting up the rest of these signs probably in the spring time frame, when all winter weather is completely over with!

RED RIVER
The Red River remains at its normal level. There still remains some lurking murky water/quicksand being pushed up into the mouth of Mountain Creek from the river, so watch out for it...getting stuck is possible.

CREEK
While riding in Mountain Creek is possible and crossing the creek is also possible...please use caution when in the creek, especially further down the creek toward the river. It is very possible to sink your recreational vehicle in the creek due to quicksand if not careful. Please note that if you get stuck, RRMT, Inc. is under no obligation to tow you out!

The weekend has arrived...the question is "Are you ready for it?"

WEEKEND RV RENTALS
Do you have your RV Rental for this weekend? RRMT, Inc. offers Member RV Site Rentals on a daily basis. Reservations are recommended if you desire a particular RV Site. Otherwise, all walk-up RV Site rentals are welcome as well. Please note that in addition to these rental sites, as usual, RRMT, Inc. also offers free other campsites that are always available via first come-first serve for your convenience.
