Description:
Lower red sonja is still very wet from seeps coming from the left bank and two landings are extremely soft. With the rain, the entire trail surface is very muddy. We're hoping that it dries next week after the rains.

A new exit was built on Thursday of this week by trail crew and volunteers, so Phat B and Red Sonja no longer share the lower part of the trail. That's rideable (if you take the little trail near the Betty's exit), but not yet finished and needs some adjustments.

Lower Sonja has had some persistent seeps from the left bank this spring, and has been closed until now. Lower Sonja is now open but be aware... view
