2025 RECAP OF THE EVERGREEN MOUNTAIN BIKE FESTIVAL
WOW. What a weekend!!!! Here's a look back at all the fun and festivities!
Still riding high from our 2025 Evergreen Mountain Bike Festival!
We returned to Raging River for the second year in a row with an updated venue layout at Snoqualmie Point Park, along with expanded programming and activities. Temps were in the high 60's and low 70's, the trails were running great, and people came from all over (even Canada!) to ride, hang out, and support Evergreen.
This weekend means a lot to us. It is our biggest event of the year, raising money for the trails and bringing the community together.
Thank you to our presenting sponsor, Outdoor Research, and our supporting sponsors: The Summit at Snoqualmie, Arc’teryx, Snoqualmie Valley Health, and evo for your generous support and involvement to make this all possible!
Thank you to Volition Brewing sponsoring the Beer Garden and brewing the special Honey Kolsch for us; The Line for building the expanded skill zone with new progression features; Compass Outdoor Adventures for leading our on-mountain bike shuttles; and Dig Deep for running our town-to-venue bus shuttles all weekend.
Thanks to every rider, parent, grom, and friend who came out and made the weekend what it was!
Thanks to our volunteers for your time and dedication to ensuring our event ran smoothly; we couldn’t have done it without you! We had a total of 140 volunteers during the festival weekend!
Thanks to our trail builders and staff, for all your hard work in preparation for this event, on the trails and in the office!
Thanks to every vendor for bringing the fun with your demo bikes, activities, clinics, and so much more!

A note from your Festival Director:
This was my first year in this role as the Festival Director, and I honestly could not have asked for a better team and community to work with.
From the months and months of prep, to the final trail work parties led by our trails crew: it was a huge team effort, and I am so grateful to be part of this team.
I love seeing everyone come together to ride, connect, and support the work Evergreen does. Thanks again for making it an AMAZING weekend!
I lost my voice and my heart is full. :)
