Please be aware that the Truckee Trails and USFS donation links attached to the 2 Bridges and the 2Beavers and a Bear trails is misleading in that neither of these associations maintains or supports these two trails. Trailforks’s should not have included these two trails in the 51 trail Sawtooth region as these two trails are the only ones in that region not supported by them. If you’re sending love to Truckee Trails via donation because you like these two trails, know that none of the money will go toward maintenance of 2 Bridges or 2 Beavers and a Bear.

Another year, another 25 plus trees have fallen. Some clusters are quite a challenge just to navigate around. Serious dedication will be necessary to make this rideable again.

All the trees have been cleaned up as of 6/20/22.. Very XC and can easily ride in either direction. I find one of the bridges trickier to get onto with the bend in it by traveling CW.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
