How's the McGill Trail - Mt.Pinos looking??

[Locnrock]

Has anyone ridden the McGill Trail this month yet??

Was hoping to take the wife and a couple friend's up for a nice day next weekend.

Thanks,
Brad

Driving back down the 5 freeway last weekend, it looked like there was still quite a bit of snow on Mt. Pinos. Probably needs a few more weeks before South Ridge, Harvest and the fireroad to the summit are passable. McGill itself might be clear, though.

Any new reports? Gonna shuttle_climb_DH again ride planned for this weekend.....


Thanks, scott.

Thanks for the link. I figured after this mini-heat wave it would be riding up there by now....

I am guessing that it may be getting close to Mt. Pinos/McGill time?

We dont earn our DH, we TAKE IT!!!!!


LOL

Figured the more runs we got , the more groomed it would be for everyone else. Just thinkin' of you guys! Getting rubber on the track, smoothing out the rutts, cutting good lines thru the snow pockets.......

Bernie, put Mt. Pinos & 6/8 on your calendar. Of course we'll be riding up McGill to Mt. Pinos.

She's ready to go. Just a little patch at the start of South Ridge but thats it. Perfect.
