Northwest Recreation

Route:  Start at the Falls Creek day use area and trail head and go north towards Capitol Peak.  Turn around at Capitol Peak and go back down to the Falls Creek trail head.

Difficulty:  Most difficult.
Elevation gain: 2000 feet up, 2000 feet loss on the way back.
Terrain:  Hard pack single track.
Length: 12-14 miles there and back.

Notes:  This trail will take you through forests and clear-cut meadows, giving you spectacular views of the Capitol Forest area.  Definitely a bike ride for a clear day.  It is extremely strenuous, at 2000 feet of elevation gain, but the ride down will be worth it.  Fully bermed corners, moderately technical terrain, and a terrain park halfway down makes this ride a definite skill builder.  If you like diversity, this trail is for you!
