The Post Canyon Recreation Area is a multi-use trail network formed of Hood River County property and a patchwork of State Park, USDA Forest Service, and private land. The area is also an ongoing tree farm operation, so be aware of potential closures. Expect traffic in both directions and yield to hikers and equestrian riders.

Description

Dirt Surfer (170) really delivers the high speed on this cheerful section of singletrack. The minimal tech and flowing trail stretching ahead invite riders to pump deep and pedal strong as they chase a great time. A few small tables and optional booters add some wheels up flavor to round out the goodness.
