Trail conditions were excellent for this late in the year, actually for any time in the summer. A contractor was on the Jungle Hill trail doing some brushing and had cleared all the down trees. A great time to ride it.

I usually avoid Tiger on the weekends due to the crowds, but there were certainly none Sunday night!  We hit the TH (Master Link) at about 19:00 and got to the summit in time to see alpenglow on the top of Rainier and a dull blazing orange post-...

New to the area and just been exploring some trails. Flowtron was good but overgrown, OGDH and Goosechase were better. Golden spike was great not too muddy and west side trails were good too. Logging is finished on The Middle? Ending on Tokyo Drift w...

It is the year in which summer never arrived in Central Washington. Frequent rains mean these trails are in fantastic shape.  The dirt is grippy right now.  Rode Hippies, Burro Loco, Gunsmoke, Gnomenclature, and Frisky Donkey.

Both Ground Control and Major Tom are running great. The jump after the road on Major Tom can use a little TLC its pretty rough trying to get the speed to clear it as currently constructed. Ground control flows awesome basically no brakes needed.

We road in the Counter Clockwise direction. The trail was clear of blowdowns and snow. The road is in good shape; we drove up in a Mazda3 with no issues. Notes on navigation: We missed the turn off onto Cooney Lake trail. It's almost a 130 degr...

Heard about the Evergreen work party that had just been out here and decided to ride it. We set out from the Big Creek Campground and headed up the service/fire roads. Took us 1.5 hrs to get to the trailhead. From there it's a pretty steep climb up t...

PVCA is not exactly local for me, but for those of you for whom it is, I hope you realize how lucky you are!  I had to be in Redmond in the morning, so was able to scratch in a short ride before work.  As usual, the trails and park overall...

Thanks to my good friend Pavel for the early Sunday morning invite to ride one of my favorite alpine classics.  We hit the trail (rather started out on the service road) at sometime between 6:30 and 7:00, and made it back to the car in about 3:3...

My son and I rode this trail yesterday. Great weather and great trail conditions made for a long yet fun ride. We rode Upper Hansen Ridge and then all the way to Harris lake. On the way back we took the lower Hansen Ridge trail all the way down to th...

Parked at the Big Creek Campground off of 52. Rode up 52 to FS 84, to 8440, before picking up the trail. Fireroad climb was 11.8 miles, and 2200ft. Since there was a work party last weekend, trail was clear all the way across. Not too many views goin...

The washout area has had a "trail" and a fixed rope put in.  Thin, but much better/safer than the boot track it replaced.

I parked at lower skookum trailhead and rode fire roads up. This is a pretty long steep road climb. It starts put with about 7 miles and 3200 feet of climbing before the real fun begins. You can expect to climb 400-500 feet per mile on the road. Trai...

Everything is in good shape. Saw a lot of hikers and lots of bikers. So, be careful on the fast downhill back to the parking lot. Not tons of blind corners though. Pumice makes this an epic more for experience and views; than the actual love of the t...

Rode this ride, apparently after work group. I parked at the campground and climbed up on the fire roads. Shuttling would probably be the preferred way to do this ride. I think it was roughly 11 miles on road/fire road to single track. Fire road was...

The Evergreen Trail Builders were out working hard Saturday and camping at the Big Creek Campground, we came up Sunday to ride with them after earning our hall passes. Rode up TR 252 from FR 8440, which was in great shape and is more rideable than th...

Parked at De Roux campground. Forest pass required. Up road to trailhead, riding the loop CCW. Ride up to the saddle is a grunt. Take the time to look back as you climb for the amazing views. As you crest the saddle, the trail starts down straightahe...

Headed to Moss Lake trails, looking for no crowds and a mild singletrack ride.  I forgot I had been here before, albeit years back.  I ended up doing quite a few segments, not in any particular order: orange arrow(?), no name, something hig...

From the campground down to Curly Creek Rd the trail is the best I've seen it.  No washouts, new rebuilds, running smooth. Don't forget to go swimming. There is one washout between the campground and the middle falls but just follow the flaggin...
