The trail:

  • https://www.trailforks.com/trails/dog-river-trail-675
  • Starts fast through big hemlock / fir forest
  • Has an undulating climb that starts less than a mile down
  • Then there’s a tricky rock section that you might want to inspect / session about 2.5 miles down
  • From there it’s incredibly fun to the bottom, with rocks, roots, creekbeds and reports say recent trailwork over the weekend has the trail running well.
