Often soggy and some serious mud pits in certain spots, most avoid this trail in favor of the purpose-built singletrack. Better things to ride than this but can connect all the way to Dolly Copp road for a true adventure ride. Or use as an alternate (but not easier) climb to Howie Roll. Snomo corridor in winter.

        It may look green, but best to avoid it. I was unable to ride up it fully.

        Fire road climb that will get your heart rate up. I prefer using Biscoff to climb.

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
