Hi, three of us are supposed to start our ride on Sunday, June 23. Is there any chance the trail will be open by this time? My friend and I are both taking a weeks vacation from work to do this ride and don't want to waste our vacation if we can't ride the whole trail. Thanks, Bob

No chance that the whole trail will be open, sorry. The river has been at major flood stage for nearly a month. More rain in the forecast this week.

Oops -this posted at the wrong spot.....We had intended to do what you are planning. We improvised with car shuttles and skipping the closed portions. We rode about 180 miles including some up and backs. See my post on 6/12 for more details. I am guessing at least 100 miles will be closed. The website update is a bit conservative as you can pick up a few extra miles here and there. Good luck.
