Lots of the fire roads further south (I didn't get any further than the tea hut) weren't exactly dry. I think it's a combination of some forestry work and the snow. Still, a few weeks of reasonable weather and some photosynthesis from the trees and it should start to dry out.
Hella muddy this morning, probably the worst I've ever seen it. Don't plan to ride anywhere in that forest at a reasonable speed at the moment!
