    Just got back. It was wonderful! went to old camp and came down the luge. A few puddles, but that's expected.

    Did see some big kittie tracks in the mud at the flag, some deer prints as well. As long as they got some food other than me, I'm cool.

    Thanks to all the guys who went out and repaired, YOUR AWESOME!!!!!

    those kitty tracks always kinda make my HR spike a little, especially late at night or before the sun is up.

    My two buddies and myself ran into you guys as you were unloading your equipment up by the trailhead gate. I thanked you then and I thank you again for all your hard work and dedication.

    STT is great shape. Thanks to those who worked on it. As of today, STT still has some wet/muddy sections, but you can avoid them easily. STT to Old Camp has a bit more mud before Cadillac but overall nice. The Luge has it's usual muddy section near the top before the 1st left hander and will take a couple more days to dry out since the sun usual doesn't hit there. The rest of it is nice a tacky. A bit on the cold side at 5pm so bring some layers.

    On another note: To those who keep ripping the signs out, STOP. Ripping it out does nothing but piss off the USFS and those who keep putting them back in like myself. This is probably the dozen time I've re-installed a sign since STT/Luge re-opened. ](*,) Just ignore it and ride on. End of rant.

    So Gene,

    Do I need to bring out a 100# of quickrete and a post hole digger to help this situation?

    It was nice meeting you at the flag by the Luge earlier this evening. Thanks for all your hard work and all that you and the other members of the Warrior Society do for mtb.

    We hit STT/Luge on Saturday 2/13 and it was in great condition. Luge is in great condition with some mud in the shady areas. I forgot how much fun it is!

    I rode a bit of STT today up to the first flag.
    Why does one of the signs at the pipe barrier say that the trail is closed?
    Shouldn't that remnant be removed?
