Dried Enough and the River is Still High

Lord Hill has dried out pretty well. So before the next storm coming tomorrow, I took the Levo to go view the Snohomish River level and go around most of the park. There were only a couple soft spots, and hardly any puddles. The biggest water problem was at the lowest point of Erratic where a small mud bog was 8 inches deep. When I entered the bog, and sunk, I almost went OTB but my weight was far enough back and powered through it. It was quite a surprise dropping 8 inches into the mud suddenly instead of one inch, but no OTB! I continued on to the river and then the rest of park. The river flood silted the lower 150 feet of the River Trail. Red Barn is still closed so that side of the park doesn't have many options. West side of the Pipeline trail is the fun side anyway. It was a great time and the Trailforks ride log with a couple pics are here.
