Land OwnerWashington DNR
Great warm up lap. Ride Clockwise. There is a water trough part way up the climb, just off the trail near the 2nd cattle guard if you ride with doggos.
Access Info
Drive out Cooke Canyon Rd. Go 1.4 miles past the end of the gravel, then turn left and go up the hill near the large powerlines. At the next junction go straight, and park in a small parking area in the trees (pit toilet will be in soon). Ride a short distance up the rutted dirt road and the loop will start on your left on an old road/clearing. You will see the return trail first, keep going south until you find the start of the trail.
