input for a trail near the seattle area (Elbe this weekend?)

Mtb Jak · Sep 13, 2014

Tomorrow is supposed to be nice, anyone have any input on a good spot to head for the day with some good views not too far from seattle? Need to do a shake down run and test flex measure for bump stops. Nothing too crazy.

Also if anyone wants to get out let me know I am open for about a 1 hour drive from DT seattle.

:cheers:

I don't know any places to go, but I'd be down for a little adventure. I'll pm you my number. Call/text me if you are going out. I'm most-likely in, but have to be back around 5pm.

Depends on what you want to get into and how far you want to drive. Walker valley is about 1.5 hours from downtown. Easy enough to enjoy the day or hard enough to make it a challenge

Walker Valley is a lot of fun. It can become very challenging when it's raining.

Since it appears the entire state of Oregon is on fire right now. I might consider an Elbe run next Saturday if there's interest? :dunno:

I am mostly sure that I could do Elbe next weekend. Someone call it official so I get the XJ ready.
Anyone want to camp Fri or Sat night?

Good to hear, Josh. This would just be a day run for TORX.

Your entire state is on fire, gotta start looking for an alternative. Scoggins Creek Fire is 300+ acres and burning a few miles just southeast of TSF. Meanwhile, the 36 Pit fire outside Estacada (aka Goat Mountain) is at 5100+ acres and still growing. I highly doubt the trails will be open by Saturday. Sorry, John but there wasn't any solid responses in my other thread. Elbe's just a quick jaunt up I5 you know.

Just north of Highway 12 off I5. Google the town of Elbe, Wa for reference.

I wouldn't call it full size friendly. There aren't any width restrictions, but the trails are tight. Think upper sections of Firebreak Five.
