Barney-Riley Trail 6/5-6/7 - "POSTPONED"!

UPDATE: The weather forcast is not looking good at all, it's now showing 60-70% chance of rain and thunderstorms for Friday and 40% for Saturday with the highs in the low 50's. There are a couple dirt hills to climb that will be REAL NASTY if they are wet.

I'm itchin to get some fishin in. Looking at going to the Barney-Riley Trail on 6/5-6/7, the trail isn't really hard, it's just long (9.4-10.25 miles) with lots of softball to basketball sized rocks and takes a few hours (2.5-3.5) to get to the Carson River from the trail head. I did this trail last Oct with Sonof40 and would like to get back up there, I missed getting a couple pitures at key trail forks for my trail write-up is one reason and the other is that there are many trail forks (and a second access trail to the river I didn't do) to explore besides the fishing on the Carson River. The trail can be sloppy if it's wet. Due to the rocks, I'd recommend having sliders and skids.

The trailhead is just off Hwy 89, 1.7 miles east from the intersection of Hwy 4 and Hwy 89, coordinates are N 38 39.9 W 119 41.8, Loope Canyon Rd. I plan on being at the trailhead between 12 and 1 pm. I'll call the ranger district office for the area mid week to make sure it's open.

GPX files are attached below, Barney-Riley1 is the easier but longer way, Barney-Riley2 is shorter but a bit harder and brushy, at the end of the main trail was a nice camping area right on the Carson River.
