Been up on the Red today, most is ok but there are intense muddy bits on the way up to that Black slabby bit right at the top of the hill. Didn't do swoopy canyon as it looked too slippy for the lasses. Bits of slush left here and there but not dangerously slippy. Plenty of people around. Fog in the valleys around the forest that was freezing but the forest was lovely!

Get yourself up there!

It's all good now, I was there yesterday and today.

There's some mud and some slither, but it is a mountain bike trail so I think this can be expected 🙂

I have been up there today. Like teagirl said, it's really sticky up near the black routes.

We managed to ride the black route with massive berms. Still quite muddy and slippy in places but doable. Everywhere else is fine.
