Info
This area is owned by Campbell Global, a timber company. See alert for Recreation Pass information. Tokul West is a bit hard to navigate for new users, so for your first time use our GEO PDF map of the area, go with a friend or join along on an Evergreen ride.
Tokul West has a large network of singletrack. It is a bit more XC in flavor than Tokul East. Tokul West has good singletrack climbs, rolling trails, and fun descents.
Ride Reports
This was my first time here, ever, which is hard to believe! But today I tagged along with EMBA reporter 'Bryan' and we climbed the Beaver Pond trail to roads taking us up to Golden Spike. We headed south to Tokul East through many puddles and bogs from the recent rain, spooked a deer, and ultima...
Rode Tokul West up to the entrance to Golden Spike, GS over to East and down Midtown mostly; about 10 miles with 2000' elevation. It's wet! GS has some major mud, and large puddles that more like small lakes. Some are 20' long and 12" deep, so be forewarned. Roots are super slippery, if you're no...
The entire area inside 30330 and 30400 Road (Mousetrap, Moonraker, Bon Bon and Upper Outback) is covered in dried black "biosolids" which I'm guessing is literally crap! Rode Lower Outback, Middle, Poopy D (no poop there), Mavericks and Tokyo Drift. Tokyo Drift has some large gap jumps with ride...
Conditions were great. Some spots were a little over grown but not so overgrown that it made things a bummer. One peanut butter muddy spot at the bottom of Lower DIY but otherwise things were smooth AF.
The trails are in pretty good shape, rode Bobsled up to 30330. 30330 up to Outback. There is logging going on up around Mousetrap, Upper Outback and the other trails up there. They have laid down a lot of peat(?) and the smell up there is awful. You keep riding thinking you will get through it, b...
Rode it the day after a good rain as a stubborn mist tapered off: Ascended Bobsled which is in great shape (love that trail except for the bottom section, which begs to be rerouted so that it carries the rhythm and flow of the upper section). Then to Poopy D which is suffering from its annual ove...
Drove in from out of town with our kids to check out Tokul and were very disappointed that trails were almost impassable and unmaintained. Maybe we rode the wrong ones, but felt like a pretty standard blue trail lap. Road 30340 had multiple small trees down that could easily be chains...
Rode up the climbing road past the Jerry Springer trail to Pink Ribbon and Pink Beaver which are now clear cut. Understand that Small Fries and lower Tokyo Drift also slated to go as well. Since logging is currently underway advise staying out of that area. Access to Steakhouse...
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.
Everything's pretty good out there! It's been a long time since I'd been riding out here and I had a blast. Trails were marked better than the last time I was out there and while there were a few overgrown trails most of it you could ride through. I usually took T
Tried out both Tokul East & Tokul West in the last week. The East seems to be a bit desolute and the tracks are in need of repair. The west on the other hand had great trails! Tokyo drift / the jumps is a lot of fun and not so xc as the description would tend you to believe.
