3 Corner Rock

Think twice before heading out to ride 3 Corner Rock! This trail has been neglected for the last several years.

National Trails Day 2008

Mt Hood National Forest, Barlow Ranger District
National Trails Day
Saturday, June 7th
Meet at Dog River Cycles, on Highway 35 in the town Mt Hood at 9:30am
http://www.dogriver-cycles.com/

We'll decide on projects based on the number of people who show up.
Expect to do some tread work on the Knebal Springs trail, and brushing on the DaKine trail.

Bring your favorite trail tools, rakes, shovels and loppers.

Please bring bike helmets and gloves, wear long pants and good supportive shoes or boots. Also, bring a lunch and something to drink.

We'll work from 10 to 2ish. Folks wanting to work for a few hours and then ride, hike etc., go for it.

Every little bit helps.

Last I checked there is still snow on most trails. You may be able to complete the Knebal/Bottle Prairie Loop and maybe part of 8 mile. It has been logged out to snow level one as of one week ago.

Thanks, and hope to see you Saturday,
Ranger Jim

Mt Hood Trails Need Support

Oregon mountain bikers need to take action and ensure important trails around Mount Hood are protected with bicycle-friendly designations. Representative Earl Blumenauer has proposed a comprehensive plan for Mount Hood, one part of which would close the beloved Boulder Lake area to bicycling. This important detail is a key divergence from the proposed Lewis and Clark Mount Hood Wilderness Act, which the mountain biking community supports.

In total, the new proposal would close 123 miles of singletrack to bicycling. The lands around these trails deserve special protection and mountain bikers want to help Mr. Blumenauer craft a final plan that preserves the land and our quiet use. This is a great opportunity for Mr. Blumenauer to exemplify the Oregon tradition of innovative and creative solutions to difficult public lands and public policy issues.

Bicyclists value primitive areas like Boulder Lake for the same reasons as hikers, equestrians, backcountry skiers and other quiet users. We seek the solitude, challenge, clean air, clean water and healthy forests that bring us closer to nature. Because our activity is a quiet, low-impact, human-powered use compatible with wild settings, we are asking Mr. Blumenauer to provide lasting protection for Boulder Lake that allows bicycling to continue.

Take Action! Write or call Mr. Blumenauer and tell him you strongly endorse a National Recreation Area designation that protects the entire Boulder Lake and Twin Lakes areas and allows bicycling to continue.

Hood River Trails Survey Is Online!

The Hood River County Forestry Department, manager of the Post Canyon trail system and hundreds of other trails in Hood River County (OR) in the Columbia Gorge, is conducting a survey of trail users in Spring/Summer of 2008. The information gathered will be used to help Hood River County as they develop their trail master plan and will inform volunteers who develop and maintain trails on their lands. Trails on Hood River County lands accommodate hikers, trail-runners, equestrians, mountain bikers (including free-riders), motorcyclists, and ATVers. This survey was developed through a partnership between Hood River County Forestry and the National Park Service’s Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance Program. It should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. Hood River County Forestry Department appreciates your time on this and values your input. Locals and visitors (from near and far) who have been to the trails are welcome to take the survey at http://www.surveymonkey.com/hrtrails
Feel free to forward this and spread the word!
