Like other posts have decried, this trail is really over grown and that is no exaggeration ! The last mile and a half mile was impassable. It’s sad that this trail has been neglected for several years.
It is super beautiful and is an awesome short a...

Did the short ride today, out and around to the logging road for the finish back to the parking spot. Trail very rough, many rocks on trail, some of them too large to ride over. Portions of the trail were very overgrow, difficult to deter...

I usually ride this at least once every year. This year I am a little late but I wanted to wait for the creeks to be done with the Spring thaw flow. Tired of getting wet feet at the first or second creek crossing. Today all the cros...

With the huge clear cut in the middle, it’s true that much of the old standard is gone. However, some great forest singletrack remains, especially around the perimeter. Many of these trails aren’t getting too much use lately, and are taking on a more...

Trails were great. Rosie Boa was a bit dusty. Did 2 loops: Rosie Boa and Fruend. Beware ticks as 2 out of us 5 riders got them.

Not strictly a ride report, as I haven't been out on site in person, but since I've lost my edit privileges to this site I can only post alerts in this fashion. According to the WTA website and hike reports, a major landslide has closed MF Snoq...

Husband and relatives riding on Mission Creek Road on their way to Devil's Gulch TH spotted a cougar sitting in the grass along the side of the road less than a quarter mile from the TH. Not agressive but would not move out of the area for 10 m...

My first bigger ride back at Tolt since the Big Clearcut: it's true that much of the trails (along with the forest) in the center are gone. However, some sylvan singltrack remains around the perimeter (especially on the north end), and a combin...

Had a great time starting from the North side at the park's parking lot. Headed up to the top of SST via a couple roads, Cougar and Cabin. The dry May was evident on the trails and the clearings were worn. The trails are wonderful and still plenty mo...

Did the full 🍭 including upper No Service and Invictus, retuning on Return Policy, then out on Poppin‘ Tops and Flow State. No Service and Invictus were slick and challenging, Invictus in particular being really tough. Everything else was...

It rained the whole way up. I rode 3/4 of the way to Mt. Washington crossing. The trail was very wet and had small puddles, which caused me to fall going uphill (In a small downhill section). Once you complete the switchbacks in the forest area, the...

It was all good, and in great condition - but watch out for ticks! My riding partner picked up a couple of them on this trail. Some repellent might be a good idea.

Attempted to take my 11 year old up for the first time on the loop out of the parking lot (logging road to trail at watershed). Got about 3/4 up FS 5510 and reached impassible (12"+) snow on the road. We got through a few patches but they got longer...

Hadn’t been to Duthie since some of the last cleanups were made on HLC. VooDoo, HLC, and Gravy Train are in perfect condition - clean and smooth as velvet. 🏄🏿♂️ Nothing like a Tuesday morning for crowds, either. 👍🏼

Trail is open and clear up to mile 3.5(4 miles from Buck Creek Parking Lot). Then I hit the burn zone and trail obstacles abound. Trees down, undercut trail, debris etc. Left the bike there and hiked a ways - snow still on the trail highe...
