You aren't a mountain biker until you ride this trail! We used McKenzie River resort for shuttling to the top. Untouched by fire in 2020, go ride!!

First-timer; highly technical first section, but could be skipped and then flows for ~15 miles, albeit too many bridges slow you down!

200meters of snow (easily walkable) & ~4 puddles all within 2miles of Clear Lake. One more week of clear weather and it should all be dry.

A portion of the trail around blue pool is closed due to a fire. At Carmen Reservoir we took the highway down to trail bridge and got back on the MRT.

There was a fire near Blue Pool which forced about 6 miles of road, starting just after the falls and down to the hydro plant. Great ride regardless.
