4 locals went out to explore this trail for the first time this year. We unfortunately found the second half of this trail had so many treefalls that I don't think you would even want to hike it, let alone lifting your bike every 50 feet, sometimes o...

The trails all over the Manastash area are riding well. No wet spots. Gnomeclature is very grown over but should be easier to find once the grass dies for the season. Frisky Donkey CCW is sweet. The Pines is a great loop to ci...

As of early May 2016 this trail was in rough shape. the upper and lower sections aren't bad with a handful of trees over the trail ranging in size from small to massive. The middle 4 miles of the trail are in very rough shape. We ha...

Conditions are near perfect on Buck Mtn. Balsam root is about 2 weeks past its prime, but still nice. Weather was a bit cool with very light rain. What a great ride!

Rode Iverson, then Summit --> Off The Grid --> Fully Rigid --> Joyride --> NW Timber. Trails overall were in great shape, but very greasy conditions made for quite a challenge.

It appears the FS has contractors working their way down the LD, so between the upper parking lot and half way to the 3 O'Clock connector it's in good shape... but from there to the connector there are about a dozen trees down, many quite large, as w...

Until Evergreen or DNR finish with the trails the only ride really available is the road in blue on the overview map. I turned off hwy 2 on to the forest service road and parked about a 1/2 mile in under the power lines.That starts your ride at about...

Rode Taylor Mountain on a Tuesday evening. Heading out from the Hwy 18 lot, the Holder Creek trail turns into a goat path, not ridable. Turned back. Went up Holder knob, gets pretty steep. Good traction but muddy areas pretty chewed up by horses. Als...

We had the Roslyn area to ourselves on a Saturday. Overcast skies and mild temperatures. This ride has a lot of climbing. We decided to head down to the Teanaway River. It's not so good for MTB's in that direction. Mostly sandy double track roads. To...

Parked at Mt. Si TH. Road CCC Road & CCC Extension, then back to car via MF Rd. A nice loop even though it was raining for most of the day. Trails were in good shape. Lots of overgrowth and downed trees on the northern section...

Knowing that it was early season and that it's key descriptor was "rocky", I was feeling ready to try this relatively short and underused ride in the lovely Middle Fork area looking for some solitude. I have been really into doing bike/hike com...

Ranger Creek trail is clear to Little Ranger Peak(first 2 miles) then wrecked the rest of the way - blowdowns, entire switchbacks gone, big rootballs to navigate over/under/around-these are not just "step overs."
Palisades has lots of blowdown - you...

Trails are in great shape. A lot of down, small branches, but no issues. Few mtb riders, and several friendly folks on horseback. Thanks to the trail builders!

The loop is in great shape with just a couple muddy patches. The balsam root is hanging on, prime in some spots done in others. Cow free until the beginning of June. Time to ride it!

A timber harvest is scheduled to start later this week that will affect Poopy D and Middle trails. Until the logging is complete, stay off of these trails and the active harvest area, and be aware of truck traffic on the roads.
