If you were on Tiger Mountain today you may have noticed an increase in timber traffic on some of the access roads. As an informed rider and trail steward, you know that Tiger land is actually a working forest. And as a working forest, Tiger lands have been contracted for a recent logging project, so mountain bikers should expect more traffic on the roads this summer.

Last Saturday, 20 ladies participated in the first of several women-only dig days—the Hot Diggity Series. The conditions on Tiger Mountain were sunny and dry, perfect for carving out more of the new adrenaline-inducing descending trail opening this summer.
And carve they did—the lady diggers made 300+ feet of progress in just four hours! The shoveling and sweat were rewarded with lunch, beer and even some raffle prizes before the riding began. Hard tail 29ers, 6-inch trail bikes, and some beefed-up downhill bikes started off the shuttle fest on the not-quite-finished trail.

Outdoor enthusiasts come in many forms, but we all share a common desire to protect access to recreation in natural spaces.
That’s why Evergreen, the Outdoor Alliance, and many others are supporting the effort to formally designate the Mountains to Sound Greenway as a National Heritage Area. This effort would work to conserve and enhance the natural, historical, and cultural legacies of the area, while preserving recreational access.
