We will attempt to do the Ape Canyon/Smith Creek loop. This is an epic ride that will be tough because of the distance and elevation gain/loss involved. I think the snow should be mostly gone by this weekend because of the warm weather. If it hasn't, we will always get in a good ride by doing a Smith Creek out/back. Total miles because of the extra 5 miles on paved road will be about 45. Please advise if you will be going. You can e-mail me at ujelang@aol.com, or call me at 503 772 0471 | ||

There will be a work party on the Ape Canyon Trail at Mount St Helens National Volcanic Monument on Sunday, August 3. Bring nippers, limbing saw, or similar tool that will fit in your backpack. Bring your camera and enough food and fluid to last the day.
