how much rain do we need to get for the trails to open back up? I think we just got enough rain by my house in west Phoenix to last a few months! :eek: :bounce2::bounce2:

Hahaha... no shit
I hear ya on the rain, we got hit pretty good up here, so I'd have to guess Table Mesa did too.
I dunno how the BLM guys figure that stuff out though... I figure more or less when they decide they decide....

From the looks of the radar every trail got hit pretty hard even down in Florence and the White tanks! I'm sure Table Mesa got hit good since one of the storms that hit Phoenix went right though that area. Hell its still raining here right now! :D

We need more of this!

North Phoenix got about 20-30 minutes of rain, it was great. Hopefully some trails will get opened up.

hey-

last week in Prescott, the fire indice (timber, soil, and air moisture content) was still at 105- needs to come down to 65 before they open. Thay said we need 2" over the majority of the forest. You guy's got most of that storm last night- we got enough to dirty up the windows. hope it keeps comin' down-

later

I think it wil take several more storms to begin to even get close.
A couple of NF camp grounds have opened. Thats a good sign. Two more big wildfires is not.
We are going to wheel in Johnson Valley Aug. 2&3 to get a wheeling fix. I have a feeling it will be Sept. before the bans are lifted.

As long as some firefighter doesn't get bored we'll be ok :eek:
