PSA: as a west side rider, riding in the rain is a way of life. On the east side with the high clay content, you’re really just thrashing the trails. East siders - especially MTB crowds- are VERY sensitive to riding in these conditions. After it dries your tire tracks are basically cemented into ruts that are more or less permanent, until they erode into something flatter (hopefully)
I'm from the eastside.😉 We ended our ride early due to conditions. It was only forecast to rain 0.1", but that was obviously not correct. Oh and don't get me started on whiny mtb'ers.😂
I get it. I’m just trying to educate folks, as you do have a substantial following- of what the proper trail etiquette should be. It’s up to us to police ourselves and set good examples. Especially if you’re going to be an “influencer” 😉
Nice ride!! Looks like you had a great adventure and tons of fun!

Looks like a blast, with some drier conditions!
I prefer my dirt medium-dry, with a side of traction.😂
This doesn’t look like your regular riding area. You must have gone east
Looks like north Chelan
