Knowing that it was early season and that it's key descriptor was "rocky", I was feeling ready to try this relatively short and underused ride in the lovely Middle Fork area looking for some solitude.  I have been really into doing bike/hike com...

Ranger Creek trail is clear to Little Ranger Peak(first 2 miles) then wrecked the rest of the way - blowdowns, entire switchbacks gone, big rootballs to navigate over/under/around-these are not just "step overs." Palisades has lots of blowdown - you...

Trails are in great shape. A lot of down, small branches, but no issues. Few mtb riders, and several friendly folks on horseback.  Thanks to the trail builders!

The loop is in great shape with just a couple muddy patches.  The balsam root is hanging on, prime in some spots done in others.  Cow free until the beginning of June.  Time to ride it!

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.

Added this trail to the site for those of you looking for a variable vertical fire road ride. There is slushy snow at 3700 feet for about a quarter mile of hike a bike for another week or two but the summit is in the sun and clear. The ride down was...

All trails are open and riding well and the recent rain showers have made things even better. We are working on a new loop trail (Mallory's Trail) to the top of the Outback which had the most iconic views on the entire trail system.  The de...

Great ride.  I'd never ridden there before.  This is my first ever report. Four of us parked at the lower Cub Creek trailhead and rode the bikes 3 miles up the road to the "Deer Valley" sign. LOTS of shade breaks on the way up as this was...

On Sunday I took my son all the way down to BDOS from Kirkland to check out the new trails and let him ride his new birthday bike. My last trip down there had me wishing for my ancient hardtail since it's a better bike for slow and twisty trails than...

Spent the last two Saturdays riding the west side to the ridge line roads, and then by starting at Olney Pass and riding the ridge line to the tower. There is some timber development going on up there on top and the clear cutting has made a clearing...

The trail itself is covered in 3-4 feet of snow. Snow line is about a mile an a half down the road from the trailhead, and the snow on the road is pretty deep as well. Totally unrideable, even if you had a fat bike.

I came to the Coho Campground at 9:30 at it was apocalyptically empty. My goal was to ride the loop around the Wynoochee Lake by my mountain bike so I found the trailhead and went clockwise. The trail looked really unpopular. There were lots of falle...
