Slipping and sliding down the hills was a blast. August - Got ripped by a reader who thought I wasn't being totally honest about the difficulty of the trails. He rode Ice Cave and Blue Ridge trails and was a little upset about how hard they were. Sooooo, even though I don't think they are particularly difficult, you may find that they are. As with other trials in the mountains, they may need maintenance, especially after a hard rain.
Fire danger is high, though.
Did Los Caballos . Too much sand and two-track. The rain hasn't been too bad, and the dust is all settled. Take care not to ride right after a major downpour, though. The forest service built a short connector from the Springs trail to a new trailhead on Hwy 260, past the old fishery.
