Anyone know how Iron river held up with the past rain? I know it wasn't great to start with, but we have a trip planned out of there this weekend and hoping not to cancel. I know to the east is bad. We were hoping to travel west and north.

Thanks in advance!

to be clear, I don't have any on trail knowledge post meltdown. All I can tell you is when I was riding from Florence west to Iron River, the grade (trail 2) was very thin before the meltdown and rain. I can't imagine the trails survived that. However, the good news is that in the last 24 hours we received about 2" of new snow. All is white again and maybe the groomers were back out. If it's possible for you I would continue further west and or North for better trails.

By any chance an update for this area? Worried about the warm weather predicted for Sat. Ugh. This season is better for the bears.

From my research yesterday......

Trails are very rideable. Pretty much toast to the east toward Iron Mtn.

South towards Alvin and Nelma is "good"...have no info farther south than that.

North and west is "good".

Lots of day riders head up Hy 32 and stop at the first rideable snow. The trails took a beating on Saturday but parts of Forest Co got 3-5" on monday.
trail 2 gets good about 10 miles west of IR. It has been that way for about a month now....just a bad year outside of the LES.
