Think so. There's no signs to say otherwise, though the top of the S loop was closed last W/E (31.1.09). Top may be snowy!

just got back in from a quick scoot around. north loop open, south loop very top section closed, the climb up to the "black" piece of boardwalk and the swoopy descent is all open on the south side.

its riding really well at the moment, the trail is solid and grippy due the the freeze. LOTS of snow and some ice, but not as dodgy as you would expect - still plenty of grip but but with some very short icy sections to keep you on your toes.

i enjoyed it more than in the wet, muddy state it often was before this freeze.
