The tracks from Weirs to Ashland were tough and a bit unnerving. Lots of rails exposed. We rode them without incident but we all had sore backs, necks and butts. 
I bounced off a rail once or twice and we were taking it pretty easy. I saw a couple of guys blast past us and they were moving. I just don't get that kind of risk taking on the rails in those conditions. One wrong move and it could have been trouble for those guys. |
Hnut is correct- It will take some high moisture content snow to cover the tracks so a groomer can go over it. RR tracks are tough on groomers!
