About this app

Know before you go.

Loam helps you find rideable mountain bike trails and choose when to head out. Check modeled conditions near you, follow changes through the week, and get alerts for the networks you watch. No account required.

CHECK THE DIRT

Get a clear verdict for each trail network, from PRIME to STAY OFF. Loam estimates conditions using recent rain, weather, soil drainage and terrain across networks in the US and Canada.

See what each reading uses, when it was modeled, and where the forecast ends. Previously loaded readings stay available offline with their model time clearly labeled.

SEE THE WINDOW

Explore recent conditions and the forecast in one interactive chart. Pan through time or tap for details, with rain and weather alongside the outlook. On supported networks, compare how exposed and shaded ground are expected to ride. Use metric or imperial units and a 12-hour or 24-hour clock.

PICK YOUR NEXT RIDE

With Loam Pro, choose a day and compare nearby trail networks across a five-day outlook. Find promising dirt for the day you want to ride.

FREE TO GET STARTED

Check current conditions, explore ten days of modeled history and three days ahead, and watch one network with a ready-to-ride alert.

GO FURTHER WITH LOAM PRO

Extend the chart to thirty days back and ten days ahead. Watch unlimited networks, get PRIME alerts and rain warnings, and check a Saturday roundup of rideable conditions.

RIDE RESPONSIBLY

Conditions are estimates, not trail reports. Follow land manager guidance and closures, and use your judgment on the ground.

What’s new

Previously loaded trail readings stay available offline, with the model time clearly labeled. See what each reading uses, how fresh it is, and where the forecast ends. Choose metric units and a 24-hour clock, and carry a selected chart time into Ride Planner. Chart navigation, large text, search, and tablet layouts are improved.
