It's too late for you now, but they are clearing 4000 tons of wood from the forest at the moment and will not be finished until March. The clearance is right across my main track into the off-piste stuff so it was a bit of a faff to work out a divert. They don't work on the weekend, so there will be no moving vehicles to be concerned about. The forest floor is a bit ripped up though and is impassable to bikes in places.

I didn't do much of the red yesterday, so I can't be 100% sure, but I don't believe the red route is interrupted or diverted. In places, there will be lots of fallen debris by the trail side though.

The blue route has a relatively short diversion near the start (between posts 1 and 2).

@Ripping g There is a LOT more to Pines than just the recognised trails. I do a few guided rides per year around the area, free! They take in the best of the features and are a lot of fun. Keep your eye out for the next one.

Here is a previous one, it opens at page 3, go to post #73 where the after action reports begin.
