Unless you like mud and riding through it. I have no use for wet trails, and never had a problem with a "dry" limestone trail.

Especially in the colder months. Never get enough sun and the trail never dries out. Especially along high rock formations on both sides. Sun angle never gets high enough to hit many spots along with cold.

Road through a few spots on the NCR the other day that are almost muddy, to slop in the cooler months the that were drying thanks to the warmer weather, high sun angle.

Those pics in the tenth post are unacceptable to me. Common, but not for me.

All of this really depends on the trail in question.
