**Rat Pac is currently under 2' of snow. Enjoy another ride this month (and we hope you do)!**
On the dry side of the state is a trail boasting a fast, swoopy ride with plenty of features (and a few “pucker-inducing” ones) for advanced riders. And for west-side riders coming to grips with the rainy season—this trail is just 90 minutes from Seattle, just outside of Roslyn. Meet our December Trail Highlight: Rat Pac.

You should meet Shawn.
Shawn loves building trail for you. As the trail boss for the Ollalie Project, he spends most days shaping trails alone, knowing you and your friends will love them as much as he does.
But right now, Shawn needs you. Record October rains hammered our crew’s progress, requiring levels of re-work we’ve never seen. New seeps and storm blowdowns in the fall aren’t uncommon, but October was record-breaking.

As an Evergreen volunteer, you make Washington riding possible! From Cold Creek to the Methow and to Spokane, your volunteer hours ensure our state remains the best place to ride.

As an Evergreen supporter, you built new projects in Issaquah, Ellensburg, and Spokane (to name a few). You gave beginner riders access to more classes than ever. And because of you, several new major trails are opening in 2017.

At Evergreen, we love our trail dogs!
They keep us company in the office, when we’re building trails, and when we get to ride (where allowed, of course)! If they were better at typing, we’d probably have some 4-legged employees.

Today the storms retreated and the skies cleared for a perfect Team Epic Shuttle Day at Raging River. Nearly 50 smiling faces packed the Snoqualmie Point Parking lot outside of North Bend, enjoying donuts and coffee, and waiting for the first peak of the Raging River Project with Evergreen staff.

This past week “The Hulk,” our famous green Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance Subaru from Carter Subaru, received a new addition to the already-eye catching MTB advocacy machine. Snug in our hitch sits a brand new, bright green five-bike Recon Rack.

There’s just 24 hours left in our 2016 Membership Drive—we’ve had a banner year of trailbuilding and now we need to show our true numbers for the upcoming budget year.
Will you help us make the final push and get your friends to join Evergreen?
