My brother and I are doing a Clinton to Booneville and back this Saturday and Sunday. It looks like it might be rainy. Does anyone know what the trail is like in this area and should I worry about poor conditions or wet areas we can't pass through?

There is nothing you wouldn't be able to pass due to rain. The trail gets a little soft with heavy downpours but drains well and is fine in a couple hours.

That part of the trail has more elevation changes than the other parts if you have not been on it before. There isn't much between Sedalia and Pilot Grove services wise so make sure you have plenty of fluids with you.

Great, thank you for the responses.

The horses mush up the trail in that section if it rains. Then when it dries there are deep ruts. Softest part of the trail when it rains. Get all of the story SP.

Trip went really well. Luckily we avoided the majority of the heavy rain. Trail stayed in good condition. Only soft in a couple of spots. Did not have any issues with horse divots. The elavation does change on this section but nothing too taxing. Not much to see along the way except for the stations in Sedalia and Booneville are cool. Probably won't do Clinton to Booneville again, it is kind of boring. There are defintely more scenic routes on Katy Trail.
