There was a 40 acre fire in the Auburn SRA. Here is the story from News 10. From the buzz I’ve heard on MTBR it sounds like the fire started near the OHV/ Mammoth Bar area so likely the Confluence Trail and maybe the Culvert trail are affected.
Update: Sounds like there is a bit of trail damage near the culvert but that most of the trails are Ok and the damage is primarily in and around the OHV area.
If you haven’t noticed yet the Sierra Nevada is open for business. Trails pretty much everywhere are rolling, I’ve ridden Pinecrest Peak and Grouse Ridge. I’ve heard about people riding in Downieville, I think both Butcher and Paulie Creek are open… probably about everything. I’m not sure about Tahoe and Hole in the Ground yet but I think everything below 9000′ or so is probably open unless it has a lot of South facing slopes. So… head east my friends!!
Update: Check the comments below, looks like Toads is mostly open now too!
Update 2: Just heard from someone that Hole in the Ground is still partly covered in snow and tough to ride.
Update 3: Hole in the Ground is Open as is Freel Pass right now… If those trails are open pretty much everthing is.
