MTB Course

A fast, challenging, 8 1/2 mile course starting from the Middle Waddel Parking area off of Waddel Creek Rd SW.  The course will begin with a Le Mans start: riders will complete a brief run to their bikes (practice this if you've never run in your riding shoes!)  The course exits the parking area south on Waddel Creek Rd toward Margaret McKinney Campground.  After this brief stretch of pavement the course enters Capitol Forest trails and the remainder is 90% single track.  Follow the Green Line 6a (GL 6a) Trail to GL 6, across Trail 10 and back towards Mima Campground on Mima Porter 8.  A left turn on road E-9000 and then the course enters the Waddel Loop area winding back to the GL 6 and into Mima Campground for the transition to the Road Bike course.

The course will be marked AND will be open to the general public.  Please yield to other trail users.

(Est. time 55 min.)
