Amber/Some Issues

Have re-posted the official status report from last week below this update:
Popped in for a quick look on the way down the mountains. Most of the trails are blocked off or too wet and unstable, so we didn't ride them.
There was one dry/stable but VERY short loop to play on.
It was the tight single trail to the east (over the white tractor tyre etc). Follow it north to the tarred Rd then turn left and follow a short way. Left again back up onto tight loopy single trail heading south to join White tyre again.
Otherwise, don't bother really... Stay away.

Official status from last week:
Yellomundee is finally drying out a bit, and hopefully will be OK on Sunday 1 April for a Club XC round (all welcome!).
But there are still a few issues out there due to erosion damage in Jan/Feb/March:
- both bridges over Shaws Creek are gone, and the trail down to the Trotting Track has dangerously deep wash aways. So please don't ride north of the tarred road at Shaws Farm. This area has been roped off with bunting and signs (not that everyone can read it seems!).
- the area west of the fire road up towards the transmission lines (Tower of Pwer, V Ditch, etc) has massive erosion damage. Please stay clear. Again, it has been roped off with bunting and signs.
- there are other areas with areas of mud. Please don't widen the track or churn it up. Just get off and walk for a few metres please.

As always, if it has rained in the past few days then please give YRP a miss. It is still very damp out there.

thanks
