Where is this soupy mess? See I have only been up there twice, the first time after getting my permit, it had heavy down pours, more like torrential rains. Though some areas had standing water, most of the trails which looked like they were made up or hard pack sand, were rock hard. Of off Burma rd were we rode, there was a coal hill area that had mud, and ir also retains water making for some fun bogging. But all those powerlines have this hard pack that absorbs water well, and had some areas that had puddels. We met some guy back there last time who was riding his jeep I wonder if that was you? I think he sais his name was Clint or something.
