TRAIL/WEATHER CONDITIONS

Another Weekend At Last... & oh, how it's gonna be a beauty!



NO rain yesterday or overnight. This morning as of 9:45 a.m., we have a current temperature of 49 degrees. Today is going to be the perfect start to a fabulous weekend. We are already enjoying sunny skies early this morning as we get excited about upper 60's to low 70's for highs today. We have received NO rain thus far today and are not expecting any.

The weekend forecast looks AWESOME. Sunny skies & great temperatures expected tomorrow (Saturday) and Sunday. (And yes, thankfully NO snow this weekend like last weekend :-) Time to kick off your weekend...get ready, set, GO!

TRAILS
All of our trails are OPEN....this includes all trails on both the North & East sides. Bill's Woods & Madagascar (aka..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 because a lot of water from the Red River is currently backed up into the mouth of Mountain Creek. No problem crossing Mountain Creek at this time. 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. With all the moisture this winter (snow & rain)...a lot of our trail system has been changed, so we advise everyone to use extreme caution even when riding on trails that you were once familiar.

Since the moisture from the snow last weekend is long gone, riders can expect dry trails. The only exception to this would be in particularly low lying/shaded areas on the trails, where riders may find some small puddles. Riders this weekend might also encounter some dust...so be prepared. The only place people should anticipate any possible mud on trails is these few areas that have puddles. Otherwise, the only other mud will be found in the creek, so don't worry.

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
Due to recent moisture from past weeks, the Red River is currently bank to bank. There is actually a lot of lurking murky water/quicksand being pushed up into the mouth of Mountain Creek from the river, so watch out for it...getting stuck is always a possibility in certain areas in the creek.

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/water if not careful. Please note that if you get stuck, RRMT, Inc. is under no obligation to tow you out!

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.

P.S. We have several RV Rentals available for this weekend for those interested.

Also, we have already started to receive a few requests for Member RV Rentals for Memorial Day Weekend...so it is never too early to start thinking ahead!
