Leave a comment - Let me know your favorite place to ride!

[@theendurodude]

Have you been to Pilchuck tree farm? It is my favorite place to ride.

[@sasquatchmtb]

@@theendurodude I have not! I've heard a lot of good things about it but have put off checking it out because I thought I might wander around too much to make it worth my while without maps!

[@theendurodude]

@@sasquatchmtb we should get together for a lap out there soon!

[@sasquatchmtb]

@@theendurodude I'd be down for sure!

[@dragon887]

Haven't ridden here, but there is a newer park at North Bend called Tennant.

[@RedPerceptionTV]

This is really a great video! Good information and well put together. Glad to have some ideas for when I next make it to Seattle

[@sasquatchmtb]

Thanks so much! Glad it is helpful 👍

[@theendurodude]

This is a fantastic video! I wish it existed when I started riding.

[@sasquatchmtb]

Thanks so much man! That’s what I was trying to make! When I started I really didn’t know where to ride.

[@user-xq5rp9fm1p]

This is awesome! Thanks for putting it all together! I find it weird when local riders post vids on YT of "secret trails" and won't disclose locations, as if the entire world is going to all of the sudden drop everything they are doing and jump on a plane to overtake their stomping grounds and make it impossible to ride ever again...if anything, people MIGHT visit a location 1x at best they see on a YT vid. Anyways, again, definitely appreciated and well done. Cheers!

[@sasquatchmtb]

You bet! and thank YOU. Really appreciate the feedback. I'm always game to help with locations or directions via email. One thing about the trails in Lord Hill is I don't actually know exactly where they all are ;) Cheers!

[@Mr.Duckstheduck]

Underrated af

[@sasquatchmtb]

Thanks!

[@TjpjMusic]

Awesome, a bunch here I didn't know about. You did miss mentioning Japanese Gulch

[@sasquatchmtb]

Japanese Gulch is worth noting for sure! I actually haven't ridden there yet personally. I used to trail run there when I worked right next to the Gulch years ago though ha! Thanks!

[@andrewwilliams6963]

Come down south to Swan Creek and rate some of the other trails in the state.

[@sasquatchmtb]

I'd love to! Which trails or trail systems would you rate highest?

[@pt.mtb2389]

Id also add you need a discovery pass to park in the upper lot at Tiger!

[@sasquatchmtb]

100% correct - I think the upper lot is the safest bet for parking as well.

[@pt.mtb2389]

@@sasquatchmtb haha hadn't even finished watching it yet

[@sasquatchmtb]

@@pt.mtb2389 haha speed like lightning ⚡️

[@OGchickentnt]

There’s also some trails in Renton, but would recommend bringing someone familiar with the area

[@sasquatchmtb]

Are you talking Tapeworm or some secret trails?

[@Gary_G]

Awesome. Well done and well said. What rain kit is suggested? Olollie is out there too. Bit further.

[@sasquatchmtb]

Thanks so much! I just wear my usual mtb pants (Andean Trails) and a rain jacket. If it’s really wet I put on some water proof hiking pants. 100% Brisker Gloves are great for cold weather riding. Olallie is a fun trip but I don’t love descending two way traffic trails. I hear in the next few years evergreen might add a few descending options to Olallie.

[@Gary_G]

@@sasquatchmtb Awesome thanks! Did Tiger today. So beautiful there.

[@aaronblonden6774]

I feel like your b-roll after honorable mentions is north slope 😅.

[@sasquatchmtb]

It might be... 😎 Can you name the trail? If you want a breakdown of North Slope, check out Corbin's! kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYukaYSVrbmErZI&ab_channel=MTB_Corbin I decided for my video here it was too far from Seattle.

[@aaronblonden6774]

@singletrack-sasquatch-mtb yep it's dnr. :)

[@sasquatchmtb]

@@aaronblonden6774 great trail! Couldn’t resist using the footage.

[@MrEdleman]

How did we not talk about SeaTac

[@sasquatchmtb]

SeaTac is pretty small and I’ve never ridden there personally. Tell me about it!

[@sasquatchmtb]

I should say it is pretty small to my understanding!

[@tomas2810]

BDOS, Black Diamond Open Space

[@sasquatchmtb]

Yeah BDOS could be on here for sure! Definitely could've and maybe should have been in my honorable mentions!

[@benjaminhauck4150]

yes, summit ridge for sure
