Upper SART conditions

I rode the entire length of the upper SART on Tuesday after work to see the effects the recent storms have had.

The good news is that the trail closure alongside the sewage farm is open again - a year late, but it's finally open. Look at the pointy tops of the fence - who do they think is going to break in to a sewage farm?

The detour we've been using on Jurupa is no longer necessary. I have updated the map and cue sheet for the third loop of the Triple Loop and they are live on our website. If you downloaded either before March 16th you will want to download them again.

Newly paved trail alongside the sewage works.

The rain has made the upper SART green and luscious, especially the first few miles. It reminds me of English hedgerows or Normandy bocage.

Pretty. Wonder if it will bloom?

There are still several places where there is sand or mud on the trail including a few that need careful attention. Most riders will be riding through here in daylight. I don't know how much this will improve in the next two weeks.

The only serious hazard I saw is a large puddle of standing water about 3-4" deep. Hopefully it will have drained away before you get there. Parks and Recreation have "Flooded" signs on the trail so it won't catch you by surprise.
