Trail Status

Salem Creek is still up about 6" from the last few rain storms, so if we get a lot of rain from Florence, it will get nasty.

The greenway has fast-moving overflow in the sidewalk valley and over the ford but the area is still passable. Deep sand at spots on the greenway. Sand on greenway at the sidewalk is nearly up to the picnic table so the weekend flooding was at least that high.

The trail is clear but has water puddles and more deep rutting. A few ruts were so deep I had to hop over them. Sand and deep ruts at bottom of the west side of the big dirt hill make it dangerous; better slow down when descending the hill. All the trees are heavy with leaves and some are leaning way out over the trail so more rain and wind will surely bring them down.

If we get a lot of wind and rain, the greenway and trail may be unusable for a couple of weeks.
