    Just to advocate for the devil here..

    But if we are all so concerned about erosion and these big holes being formed out there (that ultimately get taped off and shut down) why are we running the trails after such a torrential downpour? Seems to me that is the one thing I see most often that is broken of the tread lightly or leave no trace principles.

    It’s the same underlying problem (to a lesser degree of course) that Hurricane Creek is going through and is being threatened to be shut down over

    Very true. I know we like to complain about guys like Kong but anyone running it in the wet will make it worse. Hell running it at all makes it work.

    3 of us went yesterday just as a shake down run. Don't think I'd run it when it's raining seeing still flowing water down sections of Dutch John.

    Just to be clear, I don’t care if you guys run it during a Cat 5 hurricane situation..

    I was just pointing out some conflicting positions that I’ve been witness to on here. Doesn’t mean I’m judging, I just am in the profession of pointing out contradictory things :rofl:

    In all fairness I’m a certified leave no trace master educator so I’m a little more of a stickler than most
