**Cream Puff trail remains closed for the 2026 season due to residential construction for the Sunstone Subdivision. Active construction with machinery will occur in certain spots, for safety reasons please respect all signage and fencing, DO NOT ride the trail during this closure. The trail corridor will be preserved post-construction and trail status for re-opening will be updated on TrailForks and by the PVTA & PORCA social channels**

A Pemberton classic. A bunch of fun rock slabs with 2 nice view spots, a must do for riders new to the area.
Finish it off with a quick pedal over to the Pemberton Brewery for some Creampuff ale
