Sno Parks that will stay open...
Okay, this is actually a rare indoor day for me, as the winds are howling here in Easton and tree branches are flying as much as snow! So, I'm thinking (which is fairly rare) that we really need to research how other states handle their parks. Oregon and Idaho aren't closing their facilities, although the same storms are pounding them... So what is different? I'll do some research.
Keep in mind too, that many of the private groomers, like Boulder Creek, R&R, etc. feed their families with these contracts. Boulder (Don Maye) has done an outstanding job this season staying on schedule and working through these storms.... Actually, most of these guys have worked especially hard - I can't see threatening their livelihood over a state snafu.
I think the North Fork Teanaway will remain open because the road is plowed by the Fish Hatchery folks. Also, Salmon la Sac, Woods and Steele, and Kachess roads are maintained by the county, so those trails should remain accessible. You can access Table from Mineral Springs. And the town of Easton is super sled friendly, so maybe if we ask nicely they can open some parking down below the reload and let us ride up to those trails. But, you better get there early!
Thanks to the calm heads out there… we need to work together so the next time we have an EPIC season (maybe in another ten years or so) we also have epic opportunities. Stay safe cuss it's insane out there and
Ride On!
