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

south side of the road. There are about a dozen dirt jumps that need to
be removed.

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. There is an excellent chance that we will be able to get the trail work done and still have plenty of time to ride across the Plains toward the ladders. This is a great opportunity to get up on the mountain.
Reply to Chris at northofcolumbia@yahoo.com if you're planning on us looking out for you at the meeting location.
Falls Creek out-n-back on Sunday, Aug 3rd.
Meeting at 8am at Gateway Transit Center.
Ryan K will be the "ride leader" with the knowledge of the trail system and route.
Everyone meeting at 8am at Gateway Transit Center will be expecting to find Ryan K at the meeting spot.
JD & Shanti are organizing a shuttle version of the Falls Creek ride Chris and Ryan K are doing. Gabrielle has volunteered to point the path (thanks, girl!). We will hopefully be meeting up with the Out-N-Backers for post-ride food and swapping of trail tails.
