Advanced, slow-going technical trail with roots ranging from mid-sized to gigantic. There is also an optional, longer log-ride made from a felled tree near the middle. This is a good trail to start learning how to ride over bigger roots, log piles, stumps and other natural obstacles. Trail follows, and has some good views of Ravensdale Lake. You can also bailout early near the middle via Bail To Ponds.

Access Info

Entrance starts via a connector trail that starts from Snake, and ends onto Route 66 10-24-17: There is a one-way sign at the entrance to Beaver Tracks from Route 66 which you ride east to the junction of Snake or Lower Beaver Tracks. But the trail is so slow and technical I can't imagine why there is a sign there at all?

      Section across Route 66 from Upper Beaver Tracks is flooded with a foot of water. Impassable.

      July 11th - trail was in good shape. Pretty fun with lots of roots and rocks. NOT a black diamond trail though, but definitely a solid blue that requires some fitness and finesse. Wouldn't be much fun for a novice or anyone looking for flowy/bermy trails.

      June 2nd 2019, trail was very overgrown with stinging nettle and very tight with all the overgrown weeds and sticker bushes. Overall good technical trail.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
