Some friends and I are planning on a trip to Rifle next week from Wednesday until Sunday. Is it seepy or still mostly dry?

In great shape and according to many, the driest people have seen it at this time of year.

Possible rain for your entire planned visit though. Wunderground reports 20% chance every day - what does that mean though???????

+1 it is the driest I think I have ever seen it it this time of the year, on a side note if you make it out lock your car there has been some thefts In the canyon this year most recentley the first links on the climbs including the entire first bolt on pile driver.

It's the way it typically is at this time of year; a lot of dry stuff and a lot of wet stuff. Plenty of climbing to be had and decent conditions but you can't be picky.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
