Yes it is pretty wet. I rode Hyannis, Bridle, SNS etc. last night. Surprisingly when I rolled onto of the sheltered structures on Will's Way it still had a good coating of ice. Plus I saw only Prince Charming and Snow White out there huddled under an arch on SNS.
Debate? Bikes are made for riding not pushing.
Hey!
Rode old buck up to Baden over to Severed. Could see some snow on the trail out to the powerlines, but hiking above baden a little bit, there was still no snow, so in the trees, I am sure stuff is rideable from the first parking lot (although I didn't get that high).
Severed had alot of mud puddles, but overall, was pretty good.
Sticks, Cardiac, Bridle, Bottletop etc are all in amazing shape! (tree is still down on bottletop… it's a bit big to move, needs a saw).
Amazing conditions right now…
Indeed, the trails from the Picnic Area parking lot down are great. Corkscrew [HTML_REMOVED] Pingu didn't have any snow on Sunday, though the power lines were pretty slushy/snowy on Sunday morning. Severed was actually drier then I expected (always puddles at the top though).
Any recent updates on the trail conditions? Snow covered doom or just a little slick and chilly?
It is good on the low level trails. Not dry but not sodden either. Weather looks good for the next week as a drying trend and for melting snow that may remain higher up.

There is a big deciduous tree (~12" diam) down on Bottletop. After the ridge traverse when it finally starts going downhill, it's right after the hard left hander that's been bermed.

3 trees down in the first couple hundred metres of boogieman.
What was with the road closure on Saturday (Feb 4)?
Lol groupon. The line up of cars going to the ski resort was one of the worst ive seen in a while. Groupon sold 5000 seymour day passes on Friday and I think they were all there. Everything was dry and tacky though. Conditions were awesome.
Just wondering how much snow there is right now. Im hoping to ride corkscrew to neds or pingu pangor today but Im not sure how the snow is. Is it rideable at the start of corkscrew right now.
I talked to some guys coming out of Ned's this morning and they said there was only a little bit of snow at Corkscrew entrance, Ned's was clear. Certainly no sign of snow anywhere lower on the mountain.
Very little dusting of snow in patches at the top of Neds.
Lots of friendly riders [HTML_REMOVED] hikers, no rain, great day!
Pedalled up Old Buck this afternoon- snow only starts after the BP/Mushroom split, and is very sloppy under the power lines. Half push/half rideable from the power lines to Ned's.
Ned's had about 3 inches at the start, but was completely gone after the second bridge. After that…WET, but good fun.
