Stein Butte Trail Report - Very Dry - Jun 7, 2021

Dusty. A motorcycle crew yesterday couldn't keep their hands off the throttle and basically rototilled the entire trail top to bottom. Ultimately this is going to destroy the trail, as water runs down it and removes the loose soil revealing the rocks below. Not to mention it will be extremely unpleasant to ride or hike if you're anything but the person at the front because of all the dust kicked up. The photo included shows a trail over by Gasquet that is basically unusable because of this sort of use. It's a rock garden, and it can't be fixed.
