They are still there and VERY deep / large and show no signs of drying up. I stopped after one lap, didn't seem like a good idea to keep riding. Worried about Monday out there. Luton was bone dry. Talked to another guy that said EV was really muddy too.
I like the new advanced technical features that were added.... to the driveway.
Springtime at Merrell is a first for us and not a normal spring at that. We may need to armor the areas if they will never dry. Some appear to be spring related and others just deep puddles.

That trail has been baptized by fire. Officially opened and then a huge drought, now a once in a generation flood the following spring. It's not fair. Wondering if it's water still slowly draining down from higher up on the hill that might be replenishing the mud holes as fast as it can drain or evaporate.

Thanks

Question for the die-hards.....which direction has the longest downhills....or is it a wash?
