TRAIL/WEATHER CONDITIONS

Good Saturday Evening...

Well not much has changed since our last post (refer to our earlier post this morning below)...still very cold here. As of 5 p.m., we have a current temperature of 32 degrees. The wind today is fierce and it makes it feel even colder outside. Good luck not getting blown away. We have had snow flurries on and off all day long. (NO additional rain to report.) NO accumulations of course. Overnight, we are expecting snow flurries as well as into tomorrow (Sunday) morning.

Here are the specs on this past week & what type of conditions you can expect currently in Bulcher:

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. Due to the wet winter (snow & rain) we have had this year...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. Furthermore, with the recent moisture overnight (rain) & the fact that we have had snow flurries on and off all day today - visitors to the park should expect muddy conditions. And it is hard to say how trails will be tomorrow as we all wait to see what type (if any) precipitation falls overnight. We'll have to update you again tomorrow, Sunday, morning.

RED RIVER
Due to all the recent moisture, the Red River is stil 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!

New Blog Poll Question Coming Soon...
Thanks to everyone that voted this past week in our blog poll. Because we have been open for spring break, we have not had time to update our blog poll. Thus, we will start our new blog poll on Monday. So look for a new blog poll question to vote on starting early next week!

We will be OPEN tomorrow, Sunday March 21. We will have park operation hours of 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. tomorrow. All Members, Guests, and Visitors Welcome Tomorrow!

Happy 1st Day of Spring (ha ha...since it is snowing today)...and for those of you venturing out to Supercross this evening at the new Cowboys Stadium...enjoy. We will be OPEN tomorrow for those of you that get the fever to ride!

Cheers...
