Rode as far as the GPS tracks from the picture taken. No trees at all impeding the ride. LOT of brush, crazy. Brush didn't bother us so much on the ride up but was a bit of a buzzkill on the descent.

Trail is clear of trees and branches as far as the GPS tracks from the photo in this report. This is as far as I made it as I was only going for purpose of trail clearing. Objective was not for recon or completion of the trail. I turned back when allergies / asthma hit me, I think caused from the brush on the trail.

This year, I've put in 5 days work on this trail so far, and much more necessary. It's just not ready yet. Also, there is a washout on the road to the trailhead, so the trailhead is closed and the road is blocked 1.4 miles before the trailhead. Advise to not come unless you plan on doing trail work.

Two washouts half mile into the trail. Myself and two friends have worked on them so that you can carry your bike through the washouts. Lot of branches on trail, I mean, A LOT. Biking over branches and logs is annoyingly slow so stop and toss branches off the trail. Picture given to show how bad it is / was, but it's not as bad as it looks because this photo is focused on the massive tree that fell, look high in the photo to see the trail location, and since this photo we put in 4 person-days work on improving the two crossings. The avalanche debris field will get your feet wet, that needs some rocks moved for stepping stones. Immediately past the avalanche debris field are 3 downed trees with lots of branches to remove. Between the washout at half mile and the avalanche debris field, many more branches on trail and a few small logs.

Note: the total hours worked by group is the April sum of myself for 5 days, and 1 day each for two of my friends who helped me. More to come, but I don't log reports every time I do trail work only when significant changes should be known.

Upper 1/2 snow covered. Pretty good traction in the packed foot path. The log/jump at the summit has been cleared from the trail.

ebike Ideal soil but still some sapling interference above the meadow drainage crossing. I put on heavier gloves and light raingear to keep from getting scratched at descent speeds.
One tree across the trail just below the meadow entry about 200 yards. Photo in ride log.

Rode 24 August. Trail very dry and in great condition. There’s some brushy conditions with encroaching small alders, but rode the trail in shorts and short sleeves with no scrapes. Really nice gem of a trail and even though we’re in prime season, only saw one other couple on the trail though! Unknownview

Rode Sunday, August 17th. As noted, vegetation is quite overgrown, though trail is still rideable. Dirt’s in great condition, it drained well after the recent rain. Suggest wearing long sleeves or elbow pads, and protective glasses, as you will get whisked by branches as you’re biking up and down. Variableview

About 15-20 blowdowns now, honestly for this type of trail and how long it is they aren't too bad as they are scattered pretty evenly. 3-4 of the blowdowns are >24", none are bigger than about 32". The biggest one is on the West end of the trail before the Cispus lookout/meadows. The trail is getting very brushy in places here and there especially near the creeks between Jackpot and Saint John Lake and on the climb up from the West terminus to the meadow. Mosquitoes are epic. The loam is sublime, as is a swim in Saint John Lake. Someone motoed in at least the Eastern/Southern half and tore up some tread, especially in steep and switchback sections. I'd like to assume they cleared some blowdowns but rode around some pretty small ones....

There are also some sections with any increased use where narrow bench tread is falling away and will probably continue to turn into sidehilling after more traffic.

There is a trail running event 8/8-8/12 per the signs up today, hopefully they do some brushing pre event but the extra traffic will definitely help with brush.

Some trail heros out there cutting back some of the brush! Still a fair number of bush-whack miles, but easy to manage with a good pair of gloves. Worth it for the view! Dryview

All clear; except for one creek crossing coulld be ridden no dabs. For a mountain trail going to nearly 7000’, it is running smooth and fast. Don’t have too much fun on the descent, it drops off! Very high value ride. Thanks to the locals for the work, I suspect Methow Cycle and Sport has done a lot of work on this. Dryview
