Cochran Shoals in the Heat!

Trail status is expected, not official

The status shown is an expected condition based on weather—it is not the official trail status. Always check official trail sources or local trail organizations for the current, authoritative status before you ride.

How we determine it: We use the last 3 days of precipitation and drying (evapotranspiration) to estimate soil saturation, and temperature (including soil surface when available) to account for freeze/thaw. The result is a recommendation only; conditions vary by trail and location.
