If anyone rides tomorrow would you post a trail report? My son is off and we are thinking of making one last ride on friday before we end the season. Thanks.

I can certainly verify that the power was out. :-\

As for trees down, unless woodford's ice was way worse than mine (not likely), I'd have a hard time imagining that it was anything severe. We had a little icing before dark and that was really about it. It's possible that woodford is just ever so slightly higher in elevation than me that they got it worse, but it would have been nothing like the previous couple ice storms we had. The major problem was the huge amounts of rain that we got. I think that will result in very unpredictable riding until the trails are groomed again.

I rode this afternoon and there were trees down all over the place from ice damage. It is going to take a while to get the trails clear of fallen branches and trees. The only part that was not to bad was from the powerline (BN3) south on 7A to Heartwellville parking lot it still required allot of dodging iced up branches overhanging the trail. Trees are down from BN10 all the way to BN12 on 7N that is where I decided to turn around because it was so bad. It seemed the higher up in elevation the more ice damage.
