Going to breckenridge this weekend for memorial day weekend and wondering how dry it is up there. We'll probably do the peak to peak trail if it is dry.

Anyone ridden in Summit lateley?
I hope this is a well conceived troll. If not, I want a full report from the March of the Idiots.
Na, they both have green light on at same time....
But, for reals, you must be out of your ****ing mind dood.
Above average snow year = Late season snowmelt = Late start to mountain bike season at high elevations = Summit County isn't ridable until mid-June at the earliest.
Again, PM Rontele. He has the formula for snow melt. I used it once, but he made me sign a 20 page legal disclosure stating I would be held liable if the secret got out.
Actually Wolf Creek is at a pretty "normal" snowpack for this date right now. (a s**tload of snow still on the ground)Summit County is something crazy like 160% of the 30 year average. (A REALLY big s**tload of snow on the ground) Count on the melt out to be 2-3 weeks later than what has been the the norm for the last several years.
rode Tenderfoot yesterday to Keystone. Dry, and fun... suck it some more Rontele
Just because theTenderfoot trail is dry that is no indicator that the Peaks trail will be dry.
1. Tenderfoot trail is mainly in a non-wooded area so it is going to get more sun. Peaks is mainly in the shade.
2. Tenderfoot trail is on a West Facing slope so it is going to get better sun exposure. Peaks is on an East Facing Slope.
3. Tenderfoot is known historically to be an early season ride in Summit and is one of the first dry trails.
4. Tenderfoot trail is at lower elevation than the peaks trail.
That being said the Frisco Peninsula trails are probably dry especially since the majority of the trees have been removed or are dead from the beetles.

settle down 1.2.3.4 What does Tenderfoot have to do with Peaks anyway. Yes all of the trails in the trees are not going ready for awhile.
you can get passed a dog... nobody fuks with a lion

I caught it. The guy wants to know if anything is dry in Summit, and Rondelle jumped on him for asking a dumb question, so I gave him the info he wanted.
How's the Springs?

Actually, had he asked the question you posed, "is anything in dry in Summit County?" I would have likely replied that yes, the Peninsula looked dry when I was up there last weekend. Rather, he asked whether the Peaks trail was dry.
Rontele your a waste of space. That dude was a first time poster, way to welcome a new member. Get lost in the woods this weekend. I wanna see your mom crying on Channel 9, come Monday. asshat

Common sense goes a long way.
It does go a long way to taking the ball when someone asks about a trail in Summit and giving said person the 411 on the entire situation in Summit.
Who puts sand in a vag. Your girl must dig on your skills.

...Do everyone a favor and wrap yourself around a tree this weekend......

So, let's see, it's OK for you guys to act like @ssclowns but not anyone else? Rontele was being "funny", perhaps at the newb's expense, but it was just being funny. You guys on the other hand are wishing ill will on someone which is stepping way over the line. Perhaps you guys are not ready for this Internet thing. This community is pretty small and wishing that someone wraps themself around a tree because you didn't like their response is perhaps a little foolish. Calling him a prick, well, that could apply.
Anyone in Colorado who has been paying attention at all knows the snowpack, especially in Summit County, is way above normal. That usually means anything that "looks" like a mountian will probably have still have snow on it.
Rontele, the correct usage is 'mangina'...
Tact is for people not witty enough to be sarcastic...

your right it's only ok for us to act like assclowns, so stop it. We're a 114% of average snowpack in Summit. I guess that is "way above normal" How's the snowpack in the Springs? Do you ever ride up here?

that we had a lot of snow this year, but there are high country rides (not above tree line) that are open for buisiness. I don't think it's that unreasonable to ask about conditions in certain places as you just don't know at this time of year. I know I'll be sampling some sweet s.t. this weekend.

The snow pack in the Springs is almost non existent in the Rampart Range. Pikes Peak still has snow and the upper Cheyenne stuff needs a few more weeks. Everywhere in COS is ridable...
And yes, I have ridden up there just not this year yet. There is mucho good riding there...

yeah this thread went south quickly. But most know that we had a big winter and trails will be late in drying out.
However, Frisco Peninsula is 90% dry and ready to ride. Many locals can be seen riding there now-June 4th, when the first race in the Summit Mtn Challenge take place. Maybe parts of Oro Grande, Tenderfoot are dry too.
yeah the irony is that Horseshoe Bowl rarely looks that good around Christmas, let alone late May! Luckily when it does consistently warm up, things melt quickly. Jack's Cruel Joke is another small section of dry singletrack that is open for riding now.

rode the flume trails here in breck today...fairly dry. blair witch and back ranch area should be rideable by mid next week with the warm temps this weekend. junata trail is almost dry. moonstone and barney ford might be dry in a week and a half. blue river trail might be dry soon?
all the higher stuff is slop and slush!
