Hows the snow down around Inners? Worth making a trip this weekend?

Theres an enduro event on this weekend, a lot of it will be shut or exceptionally busy.

Shouldn’t be that busy, only 150 folk over the whole hill. On the other hand, there’s a massive diversion in thud red loop, missing out so much of the hill that it just isn’t worth the effort imo

I rode the Red at Innerleithen on tuesday night, there was a dusting of snow at the top, there was also no diversion, although there was a notice stating a diversion between markers 26 and 34, it was extremely muddy on the fireroads, but the singletrack was in good shape.

At exit of Enduro Track, post 31- post 34, lorries loading timber frequently along the forest road. Do not pass unless waved through by operator.

Was planning on going to the Common Forest anyway rather than Innerleithen trails. If its cold and the ground is hard it will be good, if there is snow it wont be worth it, too steep and off camber.
