Conditions on 3/08/09: -Only about 20% of the northfacing hills still have snow cover, so the mud season is nearly done, barring any further storms. -Road to the sport parking lot is mostly dry, with just a few muddy rutted spots. Perfectly fine for your Subaru wagons, probably fine for your Buick or Civic, if you're bold enough through the mud. -Road to the trad area is mostly muddy and rutted, but driveable with high clearance 4wd. On the other hand, while on the rock, we were given a couple of fly-bys by one of those carnivorous nesting birds, who seemed slightly disgruntled at our presence. So, as in years past, maybe we should leave the trad crag alone for the spring.
