      This is a great way to access the east side of the trail system. Start here, get on Gut Punch and then pick a trail trail that suits you for the way back down. Repeat until your legs won't take any more.

      Love this area. We are mixed blue/green eBike riders and this area was a ton of fun. We stumbled on the rides after coming from the coast, through Portland and down the East side. Thanks to all who made the fun possible!

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
