NW Trail Sisters Guided Falls Creek Ride led by Metropolis Adventure Team - 9/21
2025-09-21 09:00 - 16:00
Join NWTA’s Trail Sisters and Metropolis Adventure Team for a guided ride on the spectacular Falls Creek trail.

register here

Join the Trail Sisters of Metropolis Adventure Team for a day in the Gifford Pinchot to experience this gem of a Washington trail. We will shuttle to Oldman Pass, connecting to McCLellan Meadows and then to Falls Creek Trail for a partial loop. We divide into groups based on ability, fitness, and riding goals. All groups will have the opportunity to session a few technical parts of the descents. There are many spots to test your technical skills in climbing and descending. Roots and rocks! Maybe huckleberries, along with geological features unique to the Gifford Pinchot.

We stop to enjoy the view and a longer snack break before our longest descending opportunities. Bring your sense of adventure and join us for a day on the trail!

Please assess your riding skills honestly. This ride requires fitness and technical skills and is as close to backcountry riding as we get. The trails we will ride are rated blue on Trailforks and have gotten more challenging over time. If you enjoy riding 44 Trails area, Roger’s camp, Tiger Mountain, or can comfortably ride a couple of loops (to the top and down again) at Sandy Ridge or Post Canyon, this will be a good fit for you. Please reach out and inquire whether this ride is for you! We want everyone to be safe, relaxed, and have a good time. If we feel safety is at risk, we may ask that you stay behind and join us next year.

There will be a riverside chili feed (veggie and meat options) afterward hosted by Metropolis Cycle Repair. Stay for a beverage, food, or just spend time to chat with the other participants and make more ride plans! Make sure to bring your camp chair or find a log to sit on.

We are not meeting at an established trailhead, please use these coordinates to get to our meeting spot: 45.922321, -121.947033 on Wind River Road. Expect spotty cell phone service in this area.

What: Trail Sisters Guided Falls Creek Ride lead by members of Metropolis Adventure Team; Intermediate to Advance skill level ride.

Ride is 23 miles and 1,500 ft of technical and punchy climbing; descending is technical with roots and rocks and some exposure

When: Sunday, September 21st (9:00-9:30 shuttle organization and ride by 10:00; expect to be on the trail for 5 hours (3 pm) and hang out afterward).

Where: Wind River Road dropped pin at creek crossing.

Who: Trail Sisters, non-binary, and trans Trail Sisters welcome!

How: Please bring what you need to ride for a long day (comfortable riding clothes, snacks, sandwich, water, sunscreen, repair kit, tube, helmet, gloves, etc.).

PLEASE HAVE YOUR BIKE READY TO GO! Be sure your shocks and brakes are properly working! If you think something is off or your bike hasn’t had a service in a while, stop into Metropolis Cycle Repair no later than one week prior to the ride. They can assess what your needs are with any major work needed (brakes, drivetrain, shocks, etc.). There will be a mechanic at the start for any last minute emergencies. Using tubes? Check out this video on changing a flat trailside!

**Spotty cell phone service in this area. Members of the ride will have an Inreach for emergencies.**

Please sign this waiver in order to participate.

Please contact Janelle with any questions: jlynnebickford@gmail.com

Trail Sisters x TSI Trail Building Training Series at Stub Stewart - 11/2
2025-11-02 10:00 - 14:30
Join us for the first installment of the NW Trail Sister’s Trail Building Training Series at Stub Stewart!

register here

Join us at Stub Stewart for the first installment of the NW Trail Sisters Training Series where we will be learning all about locating new lines and flagging!

What are we doing?: The day will involve dirt-lip forming and berm building, including some rake-and-ride style trail forming.

There will be opportunities for looking at a hillside and choosing how to carve the line in for a new trail. This training will provide a fantastic opportunity for Trail Sisters to gain hands-on experience in building trails from scratch.

What is this “training series?”: The series is a set of dig days dedicated to building skills and confidence. We have three dig days scheduled (this one in November, in December at Gateway Green, and in January at Rocky Point; announcements upcoming) at multiple locations where Trail Sisters crew leads alongside Local Stewardship Teams will cover the technical aspects of trail building and sustainable maintenance in a fun and supportive environment.

We welcome all women and non-binary folks interested in trail building to join us! No prior digging experience is necessary.

Waiver: Once registered, please sign the waiver HERE.

What to bring:

Warm clothing and extra layers.

Rain jacket (and rain pants if you have them and the weather calls for it): It’s November in the PNW, odds are high it’ll rain, but that doesn’t stop us from digging!

Gloves (waterproof are best): It wouldn’t hurt to bring an extra pair, too. Cold hands suck! We have extras if needed.

Sturdy shoes

Helmet or hard hat (required)

Eye protection

Water

Snacks and lunch

Bike and bike gear if you would like to bike into the skills area (vs carpool), or for post-dig rips

Any necessary tools will be provided. You are not required to bring any of your own.

Note that Stub Stewart requires a pass to park that can be purchased on site (where we’re meeting at the Hilltop Day Use Area).

These events are very popular and sell out quickly. If you are unable to attend for any reason, please cancel your registration with AT LEAST 24 hours notice so others on the waitlist have an opportunity to come.

Join NWTA and become one of nearly 6,000 mountain bikers stewarding trails together in NW Oregon and SW Washington. If the cost of membership creates a financial hardship, please reach out to us, we can help with that barrier.

Join NW Trail Sisters for an intermediate-paced ride through Forest Park.

register here

Join Trail Sisters for an intermediate-level ride through Forest Park the morning after Thanksgiving!

This ride is open to women; cis, trans, nonbinary.

Meet:

At Cyclepath West at 10 a.m. and roll out by 10:30 a.m. (If you drive, please don’t park in the Cyclepath lot.)

Bring:

A ready-to-roll gravel/cyclocross bike with knobby 35c/40c tires for maximum fun, but hardtail mountain bikes are also great for this terrain. Full suspension mountain bikes might be a bit heavy, but bring what ya got! Please do any bike-maintenance checks prior to arriving (lube chain, top up on sealant, pump up tires, check brakes, tighten bolts, test shifting).

Also, bring the standard stuff to keep you safe and comfy: helmet, gloves, layers, fenders, water, snacks, clear-lens glasses, extra tube, pump, multi-tool.

Ride:

About 1,400 ft of climbing over about 16 miles. This is a no-drop ride but there may be groups that split up a little depending on who’s feeling peppy and who’s feeling chill 🙂 We will always regroup at natural stopping points.

This is an intermediate-fitness ride, so please assess your ability level honestly. If you have not ridden a bike uphill recently, you may struggle to have a good time on this ride.

The route will also involve a short section of downhill singletrack (Firelane 5) that requires intermediate-level bike handling skills.

Route on Ride With GPS: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/49006426

Socialize:

Optional (but highly encouraged) post-ride hang sesh at The Dragonfly Coffee House. Coffee, lunch things, and pastries abound 🙂

See ya there.

An NWTA membership is not required to join this ride. But if you would like to become a member, or donate to the organization that helps maintain Firelane 5, you can do so on the NWTA website: https://nw-trail.org/join/

Please contact carriej@nw-trail.org with any questions.

This will be a chill, guided ride around the trails at Rocky Point. Ride at your own pace, get comfy on your bike, learn from others, and maybe come away with a riding buddy or two!

Meet at the main parking lot on Rocky Point road. Your ride leaders will meet you there, go over bike safety, talk about route options, and show you around!

Note this is not a clinic, just an opportunity to come together and ride with other women who are just getting into mountain biking.

There will be at least 400 feet of climbing on singletrack. Though this a slower-paced, no-drop ride, please assess your fitness honestly to ensure are able to do this and still have a good time!

Please bring:

A mountain bike in good working order (just front, or front and rear suspension, knobby tires, enough gears to get you up hills, flat handlebar, tires pumped, sealant checked, bolts tight, chain clean and lubed, brakes and shifters working)

Snacks and water

A multi-tool, hand pump, and extra tube are also good to have!
