Ran half of it (from Vernonia) with a friend today (2/27), and it was very muddy. We had fairly appropriate tires, but full mountain bike knobbies would have certainly helped. The trail would be much more enjoyable after about three rain-free weeks. The first stretch out of Vernonia is pretty steep, but once you cross the paved road it levels out a lot. One other thing to note is that if you ride the paved road on the return leg, the chance of an encounter with an angry motorist is pretty likely. We had several.
The trail was so pretty and scenic. It seemed to be in good repair (except for several downed trees along the path). The wooden bridges and walkways can get super slick, but otherwise a really nice walk next to the creek.
This paved path has great signage, as long as you know which parking lot you parked in. It would be really hard to get lost. Families and friendly people on the way. Cell service not great there, so plan ahead. 5 parking areas that I counted and some porta potties. I'll be back!
There is a long flight of stairs about 2.5 miles from Cascade Locks and the trail is pretty narrow for trikes. The portion from Hood River to Mosier is beautiful and one of my favorites.
Rode from Johnson Creek to Boring and back. Saw lots of wild rabbits and other friendly cyclists. Peaceful and very peaceful after passing Gresham on my way to Boring!
I hadn't been back to that part of the gorge since the fires. I started at the Yeon trailhead with a road bike. It is still very scenic. I would advise some caution as the road surface has enough bumps etc due to cracks and roots that I was cautious about bending a rim. I'd planned to ride into Cascade Locks but at roughly the 4.4 mile mark there is a couple flights of stairs. I chose that as a turn around point so ended up with something like an 8.9 mile ride instead of 12.5. I'd do it again with a single speed or something to make this scenic route a bit more challenging or loop it in with something a bit grander.
Industrial for huge parts. Not the prettiest bike ride.
We rode from Clackamas town center to downtown Pdx. Homeless harmless and ride was amazing, saw rushing creeks, natural beauty/habitat and even deer!
Since this is close to the house we frequently hit the Burnt Bridge Creek Trail. It is pleasant, has a variety of views and frequent wildlife. It can get really crowded on pretty weekend days and you have to watch out for little ones.
